[Bug 1913696] [NEW] I hear a click on speakers when a sound is played, whatever the software playing it. Tha could be solved adding parameter to the kernel: snd_hda_intel.power_save=0

[Alvaro Benlloch]

Public bug reported:

As described, a click on speakers occurs when a sound is played, whatever the program playing it. Always have to be a time with no sound when a playing finishes. Searching at Fedora bugzilla, that kernel parameter was suggested. snd_hda_intel.power_save=0
I tried it and the problem is solved. I hope this helps Ubuntu solving it for overall users.
