• QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct and install qt5ct instead of kvantum-qt5 -- kvantum causes bugs with quassel forgetting action custom color, and taking several seconds to open settings
• so far installing just pulseaudio pavucontrol seems to work with my mixer and not cause the weird issue i was having previously. monitor this to see if installing pulseaudio-alsa or cadence is what causes the bug lmfao nope it's happening just with pulseaudio and pavucontrol. heck. it's definitely a bug in pavucontrol, but not happening on the ux301 (maybe it's due to multiple sound cards?)
  • jack2 python2-dbus cadence pulseaudio-jack pulseaudio-alsa, add audio to groups when creating user?
  • maybe just pulseaudio-alsa
  • downgrading to pavucontrol 3.0 did the trick! It's working fine now.
• swapfile honestly not worth it bc for some reason hibernate/hybrid-sleep cause a restart instead of working properly? ah it needs a kernel param https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Power_management/Suspend_and_hibernate#Hibernation_into_swap_file

• looks like hybrid sleep causes a black screen in x when waking up from "hybrid sleep"
• looks like hibernate still doesn't work agh... at least with this swapfile and without the two dots
