Keyboard controls are ignored when pausing PipeWire input about cava

[karlstav]

this might be intended behavior, not the key controls, those should work (if the sleep timer is not configured).

When the source is paused, there is no data coming in, i would have to add a function to reset the buffer to zero after some time without new input data. I think i already have it in the fifo input.

Yeah, the bars freezing does make sense actually, but it would be nice to have them reset to zero after some time :)

was finally able to reproduce. The issue is that the main thread is waiting for the audio to terminate, but the on_process callback is not being fired. Need to think of some solution.

[karlstav]

I guess that was what this was for: 0d77307 will re-add it make some signal to the thread when terminating the audio.

You can make on_process keep firing by setting PW_KEY_NODE_ALWAYS_PROCESS, seems to fix this issue completely.

[karlstav]

it does! and then the bars also go down when pausing.

I will consider this resolved then, thanks @gardk for the contribution!
