Bug Description

Often when I log in after a standby PulseAudio doesn't play any audio, the service is working but no audio is heard. I noticed that when this happens, if I adjust volume the system shows Dummy Output instead of the usual speaker small window. Also, one day when I was having right this issue I simply took a screenshot to a game that I was playing and audio was played 🤨.
