This seems relevant: https://github.com/RustAudio/rodio/issues/267

And installing this seems to fix the issue but this definitely feels like a workaround, not a fix: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/pulseaudio-alsa

Just for those who stumble here looking for solution and using pipewire, pipewire-alsa instead of pulseaudio one works too.
