No sound after screen locked
Hi, I use Linux Mint XFCE 18.3. I've never experienced this kind of problem. When I lock the screen with shortcut Ctrl+Alt+L it switches music/sound off. For example, I'm listening a web radio, lock the screen and the sound mutes. Once I'm logged back it turns on. It regards all kind of multimedia I play, doesn't matter if I'm listening web radio, youtube movie, music from Rhytmbox etc. It is the same when the screen goes black and lock automatically after the time I have set in the power settings. Do You know the solution to this issue? I've searched the forum but haven' found related topic.
