Randomly very garbled/distorted sound with "Advanced Auto Gain" preset on Chromium based applications

[salman-farooq-sh]

Everything works fine on all applications (including chromium based ones) but after some time, seemingly randomly an issue crops up for chromium based applications (e.g. WhatSie snap, Skype snap, Chrome official .deb, etc) (haven't noticed/encountered it for other applications till now).

The issue is that all sound output (don't know about sound input but can check it too if you want me to) becomes very garbled until either laptop/EasyEffects is restarted or an empty preset (with no effects in it) is loaded* or EasyEffects is turned off via the button on top-left corner*.

*Reverting these makes the issue come back.

The issue hasn't occurred mid-sound-playback yet, i.e. so far it has always occurred after one playing sound has finished and then after a while (>10 minutes) when another sound is played, it is all garbled, after which all chromium applications exhibit the issue.

I can attach a recording of the issue too if you need me to. Also, these have all been only my rough observations over a few weeks so take them with a grain of salt.

Some more info:
Laptop: ThinkPad T580
Distro: Kubuntu 22.10 updated to plasma 5.26.5
EasyEffects: Installed through flatpak
Might be related or have some causal linkage on my setup: kmonad/kmonad#668 (or could be sleep related?)

PS: Thanks for the awesome presets!

Uhm, this is indeed really weird, I have never experienced this issue with the Chromium-based apps.
As this is a presets repository, I believe the correct place to ask for help is the upstream EasyEffects repository (https://github.com/wwmm/EasyEffects), maybe this a combination of settings that causes the issue or something else, I don't know xD

Maybe in the issue it is worth mentioning that you're using my presets.
