Note, that this happens with other software, too, e.g. linphone.
I assume, that most soft phones send (DBus?) signals when one
takes or ends a call. Quodlibet pauses and resumes accordingly,
which is nice. However, it should probably not resume
automatically when being paused manually.
After a little investigation, it appears that this functionality is
performed by the module-role-cork module of pulseaudio, so commenting out
the line "load-module module-role-cork" in /etc/pulse/default.pa fixes the
issue.
That is, when I start a video call, quodlibet no longer pauses, and when I
finish a video call, quodlibet no longer unpauses.
I would be happy if quod libet were to pause when a video call starts, but
I am not happy for it to unpause when it finishes. However, there doesn't
seem to be any documentation or configuration options for
module-role-cork.
I'm happy for this to be "fixed" in quodlibet, or reassigned to the
pulseaudio package.
