Try this instead:-

Code:
subprocess.check_output(shlex.split(command), stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)

That doesn't work etiher. Also the exact same command works with subprocess.check_call. What's weird is the subprocess.check_output works in the python shell but not from the python script.

pasuspender(1)						      General Commands Manual						    pasuspender(1)

NAME

       pasuspender - Temporarily suspend PulseAudio

SYNOPSIS

       pasuspender [options] -- PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS ...]

       pasuspender --help

       pasuspender --version

DESCRIPTION

       pasuspender is a tool that can be used to tell a local PulseAudio sound server to temporarily suspend access to the audio devices, to allow
       other applications access them directly. pasuspender will suspend access to the audio devices, fork a child process,  and  when	the  child
       process terminates, resume access again.

       Make sure to include -- in your pasuspender command line before passing the subprocess command line (as shown above). Otherwise pasuspender
       itself might end up interpreting the command line switches and options you intended to pass to the subprocess.

OPTIONS

       -h | --help
	      Show help.

       --version
	      Show version information.

       -s | --server=SERVER
	      Specify the sound server to connect to.
