Problem with Audio Output on Linux, have to change output first

Hi,

i have a new problem introduced with the last plexamp update. I am running plexamp via the appimage AUR (en) - plexamp-appimage on endeavouros. When I start plexamp it cant play music. The playbar will jump one second forward and back. I can solve this by going into the settings and switching the output device from default to something else and back to default.

Afterwards everything is fine.

You haven’t included Plexamp logs, but this sounds like an issue with the audio subsystem on that Linux distro. The default audio output device should generally work.

I am seeing the same thing recently on nixos with the pipwire audio subsystem, this wasn’t an issue until a couple months ago but now on multiple devices I have to swap from the currently selected audio device (usually default) to a different one (either ‘pipewire sound server’ or an actual output) to get music to actually start playing. This happens every time I reopen plexamp, open first time, music doesnt play, swap to a different device, it plays. Open again, audio doesn’t play, swap back to default, it plays.

Heres my logs, though after a quick scan I didn’t see anything myself that looked relevant

I am seeing exact same thing as OP, I’m running Ubuntu
