Assigning to our pulseaudio maintainer Colin for advice, but since we haven't heard from him for some time, adding more packagers in CC too.

(In reply to Thierry Vignaud from comment #1) > I'm not that sure that's actually a bug Does anyone know whether it is? @ Herbert, Thank you for having taken the needed time to report this issue! Did this issue get fixed? If so, please change its status to RESOLVED - FIXED If you agree that it's not a bug, then change its status to RESOLVED - INVALID If it's a bug and didn't get fixed, then we regret that we weren't able to fix it in Mageia 5. Mageia 5 has officially reached its End of Life on December 31st, 2017 https://blog.mageia.org/en/2017/11/07/mageia-5-eol-postponed/ It only continued to get important security updates since then, because we are waiting for a big Plasma5 update in Mageia 6, that'll fix many of the Mageia 5 => 6 upgrade issues. If you haven't seen that this issue got fixed, then please check whether this issue still exists in Mageia 6. If it does, then please change the Version (near the top, at the left) to "6". If you know it exists in Cauldron, then change Version to Cauldron. If you see it in both Cauldron and Mageia 6, then please set Version to Cauldron and add MGA6TOO on the Whiteboard. Thanks, Marja

No reply, so closing as OLD since Mageia 5 is no longer maintained.
