same issue on Fedora 24 beta

Comment 3 Oliver Ilian 2016-06-27 18:39:03 UTC
I think i found the culprit for this issue. The problem is that tuned is setting the power safe for the sound card to 10 seconds, even if every other config says to turn power save of.

madstitz can you please try to remove the tuned package and see if that fixes it for you too?

Comment 4 madstitz 2016-07-19 08:10:39 UTC
I don't have tuned installed at all

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2020-12-15 07:41:19 UTC
After evaluating this issue, there are no plans to address it further or fix it in an upcoming release.  Therefore, it is being closed.  If plans change such that this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release, then the bug can be reopened.
