[alsa-devel] Best (non zero) CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT value ?

[Hans de Goede]

Hi All,

Recently I've changed the value for CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT for Fedora
from 0 to 1. Someone pointed me to:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/sound/designs/powersave.html

Which advises 10 seconds, but that seems quite long IMHO, also for Fedora
I would expect all users to go through pulseaudio and AFAIK pulseaudio itself
already has a timeout where it keeps the device open for a while when idle?

So any advise on to what would be the best non zero value for
CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT ?

Regards,

Hans
