So I just finished a net with the local ARES group on their FM
repeater. There was a lot of traffic that I received and I passed
traffic and no lockup. So hopefully disabling USB sleep fixed it.
When I built Fldigi I didn't install pavucontrol because like I said
there was a message that popped up saying there was a conflict with
pipewire and pulseaudio.
The one thing I noticed is I can click the speaker icon in the task
bar, select the USB Audio Device and adjust the audio levels which
is easier than using pavucontrol and the sound levels both speaker
and mic seem to be okay.
I have PortAudio selected with pipewire.
Thanks again and 73, Ron NY3J

Hi Joe,
I am running Mint 22.1 and Fldigi version 4.2.06.09 and I use
Rigcat for rig control. Usually Fldigi does run 20% or less CPU.
It's usually during a net when there's lots of things happening
that, without warning, I look at Fldigi and it stopped. Very
embarrassing when NCS just called on me to send my traffic :-)
So the autosuspend was 2 and I used the instructions in the
Linuxmint forum to set it to -1. Thanks for the information. It's
interesting that it didn't effect my wireless USB keyboard and
mouse.

Ron,
?
Are you running Mint 22.0 or is it Mint 22.1?? I'm running
Mint 22.1 and Fldigi 4.2.06.26 and have no problems.? I use
Flrig 2.0.05.93 for rig control, and sometimes run two
instances of Fldigi with no problems.? I'm using pulseaudio.?
If I look at top, I see Fldigi uses less than 20% CPU, and
mostly runs around 5%-10% range.

Perhaps you would benefit from upgrading to Mint 22.1 (if
you are not already there), and build/install Fldigi
4.2.06.26.

It seems possible you are experiencing a USB sleep issue.?
Here is a way to disable USB sleep at boot time:

You might also try setting the file
to the contents of "-1" if it is not already set to that.
