On my RoPieee I’m using
options snd_soc_core pmdown_time=600000
to only turn off the SPDIF of my Allo DigiOne after 10 minutes of inactivity because the default of 5 seconds makes my Nubert A-700 active speakers turn off and then back on when Roon takes more than 5s to load a TIDAL album. This off/on action means the first ~15 seconds of a song are inaudible as the speakers are still powering up.
It would be nice if instead of an on/off switch there was actually an option to choose the idle time after which the soundcard is powered down. To keep it user friendly maybe a dropdown with some sane values like off, 5s, 30s, 1m, 5m, 10m, 20m, 30m, 60m could be shown.
