I've noticed something similar when "unpausing" a video, but in my case (RPi3 into computer monitor with 2.0 channel audio) after unpausing a video I sometimes hear a brief burst of white noise (or "click"), and then all audio is lost until playback is ended. It can also happen when starting playback. Seems to affect most videos - h264, hevc - with 2.0 or 5.1 audio but I couldn't trigger it on a VC-1 video with TrueHD audio.

I believe it started with #0910.

It only happens with MMAL - doesn't happen with OMX.

And it only happens when "Output configuration" is "Optimized" or "Best match" - if I set this to "Fixed" then there is no issue.

I do have the exakt same problem. RPi2 with 2.0 stereo. But no burst after unpausing, only silence. Rapid pause/unpause sometimes produces a "click" but audio only works again after stop and play again.

I also noticed this issue recently and was trying to track down a repeatable cause (with debug log) before reporting it. "Clicks" seem to occur after pausing/re-starting a local network video stream.
(I have also noticed it with live addon video streams i.e. iplayer www and think it occurring when slight stream pause occurs due to overall internet/network bandwidth issues)

In my case i just receive a single loud click, Audio appears to continue OK otherwise etc. (Will review and try to repeat with ideas on which kodi option/settings I have selected/enabled)
