Динар Курбанов: right, this is logind revoking access to hardware - your system uses ACL to grant permissions to devices, and there is nothing pulseaudio can do about this; you can 1) stop suspending UI session, or 2) stop using ACL for audio devices, e.g. configure "audio" group access (this likely OK for single-user desktops)

Динар Курбанов: acl permissioning is configured on system level, you better get to your distro forums for help
