Description:

When playing audio first second or two internal speakers are silent. For example when resuming YT video first few words are inaudible. It's not related to card power management settings as I tried to change it in PipeWire settings, disable it using kernel parameter and checked power status while playing. Also when continuously playing audio with short sound playing in some interval internal speakers are completely silent until some other sound playing in background. Issue is only present when using internal speakers, headphones working correctly.

Device: HP Omen 16 (2022) [16-n0134nw (714V7EA)]
Sound server: PipeWire 0.3.76
Kernel: 6.4.7

Steps to reproduce:

This video is all silent of no other sound playing in background, best way to reproduce this.

Linux and Windows codec dumps without headphones.

Maybe useful: The issue is present on Windows using default drivers. It's fixed after updating drivers to version from HP website

This is clearly not an Arch packaging issue. You'll have better luck reporting it upstream to the relevant kernel folks. If it's a regression (i.e. it works in an earlier kernel) general debugging advice is here [1]. You could try the kernel bugzilla and/or the alsa-devel mailing list [2]. Please let us know what you find out.
