Before starting PulseEffects, my audio output to the speakers/headphones is fine. Once I start PulseEffects (with no output effects toggled), no audio is heard from anything. Closing PulseEffects does not remedy the issue; I have to restart Ubuntu to regain audio out. Any ideas?

I had the same problem. In my case, incorrect pulse config made that problem.

I fixed that problem by resetting that configuration by:

  1. Rename pulse folder located at $HOME/.config to any name (just for backup the original)

  2. Open your terminal and type the commands below:

    pulseaudio --kill
pulseaudio --start

Got the same problem on t430 also all works without pulse effects when i start it there is no output from pulse audio service even if the apps are playing into pulseeffects device. kill -9 pgrep pulseeffects kills it and fixes the audio after closing.

I got the same problem on 20.04.

pulseaudio --kill
pulseaudio --start

resolved my issue without restarting the ubuntu.
