[BUG] Switching, with GNOME Eolie running, prevents speakers from working

[chintan-mishra]

I am using this repository on Manjaro ARM for RPi 4. I was using RPi's audio jack and I decided to switch to the Sound Card HAT. After switching, the audio source stopped working but the application playing the audio didn't freeze. Just the audio froze.

The audio was being played from Mozilla Firefox when I decided to switch to Sound Card HAT. At this point GNOME Eolie was already running. After tinkering with various audio settings for a while, I closed GNOME Eolie. The audio started working.

Any further process of starting/stopping GNOME Eolie and switching different audio sources has no effect on the audio.

Help me troubleshoot the issue. I will love to submit a patch.
