I start tv, select input source, set default sink for pulse audio(pacmd set-default-sink 0) and start some playback in mplayer. For some reason, there is like 3-5s delay between command being executed and sound actually coming out from tv(sony). After that, I can immediately turn off mplayer, and if I rerun, there won't be any delay/audio missing. However if I wait for like 30s, it will start over again.
I really don't know what is causing this issue. Is it pulseaudio, android tv, gpu, or it's a some feature of sound over hdmi? Is it somehow fixable? I mean for initial first connection — not ideal, but OK, but then I'd like to 'hear' all executions of all potentialy launched apps start playing immediately.
