PulseAudio huge CPU usage












1














For a few month now, the sound doesn't work on my Ubuntu 16.04. I tried some things to resolved that but I can't remember what I did.



Today, I checked my CPU usage as every day and I saw PulseAudio with 10-15% of CPU usage but I don't use it (sound off/no source of sound is running).



If someone has a idea and/or a solution for this huge CPU usage, i'll be grateful.
