Description of problem: If Wireplumber is used, as Fedora Linux 35 Beta does by default, vlc has an about 20 second delay when opening video files that have an AC3 audio track. I have identified Wireplumber as having some role in this by switching back to pipewire-media-session as was used in Fedora 34. The issue disappears when I do that and reboot. More details are available at upstream issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/wireplumber/-/issues/63 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.4.2-1.fc35 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install vlc from RPM Fusion 2. Download this example video: https://people.freedesktop.org/~wtay/DolbyDigitalBroadway.vob 3. Open the video with vlc: $ vlc DolbyDigitalBroadway.vob Actual results: Vlc starts, showing black screen and 0% audio volume for about 20 seconds, then video starts to play normally. Expected results: Video immediately starts to play. Additional info:
