Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Upgrading to debian 12.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Followed the instructions in the release notes.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

On rebooting, a process called wireplumber consumes most of the cpu.
Sound does work.  If I kill the process, cpu usage falls, my fan stops
spinning and I no longer have sound.  I have to kill wireplumber on
each reboot (or let it try to fry my cpu).

Please let me know if I can provide more information.

In case it helps anyone else, this has so far fixed the problem
introduced by wireplumber:

# apt-get purge wireplumber
# apt-get autoremove --purge

Then I killed and restarted pulseaudio.

Do you have pipewire-libcamera installed? If yes, can you remove it?

Can you provide log from pipewire and wireplumber as explained here [1]?

Best regards,
Dylan

"pipewire-libcamera" doesn't appear anywhere under /var/log/apt so I
think it's never been installed.

I'm attaching the result of

   $ journalctl --user-unit=pipewire --user-unit=wireplumber \
   --user-unit=pipewire-pulse  --since="2023-07-29" \
   --until="2023-07-30" > log1.txt

which I think includes the result of my first boot into debian 12, soon
followed by my killing wireplumber.  Hope that helps.

Thanks for replying, I'll try to supply more if needed.

Dear Maintainer,

I don't think I was seeing this issue in Bookworm, though I could be
mistaken about that. I am definitely seeing it in Trixie. My laptop is
incredibly hot and like the original reporter of this bug I have to
choose between killing wireplumber and not having any sound vs.
leaving it running and my laptop burning my lap, literally.

One more update... Wireplumber doesn't continuously suck CPU. I have not
been able to determine what factors cause the CPU spikes.

I just encountered this again, and sound (both input and output) weren't
working while it was going on. I did `systemctl --user restart pipewire
pipewire-pulse` and wireplumber stopped spinning and sound started
working again. Just posting this update in case somebody else stumbles
across this bug report and is looking for a workaround.

Dear Maintainer,



I have a machine running Trixie where a wireplumber process owned by Debian-gdm
is started that uses 100% cpu of one core. While the process is running I get a
series of messages in my log saying

'INFO: task daemon-init:1972 blocked for more than 966 seconds.
[ 1088.843557]       Not tainted 6.12.30-amd64 #1 Debian 6.12.30-1
[ 1088.843559] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this
message.
[ 1088.843561] task:daemon-init     state:D stack:0     pid:1972  tgid:1948
ppid:1      flags:0x00004002'

followed by a Call Trace. My virtual machines do not start while the process is
running and I cannot login over gnome-remote-desktop (system level).

GDM is running on the physical machine and if I log in there and start gnome
the process disappears and everything afterward behaves as expected, including
gnome-remote-desktop. If I simply kill the process from a terminal I am *not*
able to log in over gnome-remote-desktop.

I did a complete reinstall of Trixie after the problem first appeared. All
behaved well for the first few days after that but then it re-appeared this
morning on a fresh boot (and multiple reboots).

I'm able to avoid the problem by delaying the start of a Windows 11 qemu
guest. I pass-through a PCIe USB-expansion card to the windows guest
that has a sound card plugged into it. Maybe GDM and libvirt are
fighting for control.

I have the same issue. Sometimes Firefox seems to hang and I notice wireplumber
eating 100% CPU on one core. Restarting wireplumber fixes the issue and
unfreezes Firefox as well.

I don't have pipewire-libcamera installed. Here are some logs, I restarted wireplumber 14:29:
