Nimm #pipewire, haben sie gesagt. Damit wird alles einfacher, haben sie gesagt.

Naja, man ist da sicher auf einem guten Weg. Aber das Jonglieren mit config Dateien und Einstellungen erinnert mich doch etwas daran, wie es vor reichlich zehn Jahren war, wenn man
#jack und #pulseaudio zusammenbringen wollte.

Zwar muss jetzt nicht soo viel konfiguriert werden, aber man muss schon ein wenig herumsuchen...

Mit meinem install
#Script für das #Audio Zeug hab ich es nun ohne jack versucht. Mal sehen ob es sich mit #ubuntu 24 #Linux bewährt:

Dankbar bin ich für Ideen dazu und für Hinweise auf Fehler.

I've got audio working on MuseScore4 + Void Linux! A little summary of what I did (for myself and anyone else on #linux needing #MuseScore 4)

I first switched to #pipewire. For me, this involved uninstalling #pulseaudio and jack, then installing the packages `pipewire alsa-pipewire`. This differs on other distros. I needed to verify that pipewire was starting up properly. Since I didn't have a login manager, I had to set the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR variable manually and also create that directory everytime I booted. Using `tmp` instead of `run` worked better for me.

Then I followed these steps: docs.voidlinux.org/config/medi to get #alsa integration going. Restart, then that's it!

MuseScore now has audio 😭

docs.voidlinux.orgPipeWire - Void Linux Handbook

Pipewire (or, more accurately, its use of Pulse) has been problematic for some time, often selecting an HDMI output rather than stereo audio via the on-board sound device, then I found this somewhere (didn't note where):

load-module module-remap-sink sink_name=stereo-downmix master=alsa_card.pci-0000_2a_00.4.analog-stereo channels=6 master_channel_map=front-left,front-left,front-right,front-right,front-left,front-right channel_map=front-left,center,center,front-right,rear-left,rear-right

Change the ‘master’ parameter to match your hardware (as I did, using the PCI address of the on-board HD audio controller), stick that line in /etc/pulse/default.pa (or, presumably, ~/.config/pulse/default.pa), restart the sound server and all should be well.

I've been using Linux on my desktop for nearly 30 years and i still don't understand how to get sound working properly and reliably.

Searching for some kind of distro-agnostic 2025 Linux audio general best practices guide... What should I be using (ALSA, jack, pulse, pipewire?), how can I configure multiple sound devices (onboard, HDMI, USB, Bluetooth), set my preferred inputs and outputs and levels on each, toggle between them properly, and have those settings persist after logout, reboot, or removal/addition of devices?

Hello :mastodon: je cherche de l'#aide pour configurer le mode passtrougth de mon #kodi21 sous linuxmint 21.3 vers mon ampli Denon AVR-X520BT.

Après avoir essuyer pas mal de déboires avec #pulseaudio, j'ai bien du son qui sort via le passtrougth, mais c'est un bruit moche quelque soit le format de son du film (AC3, AAC, DTS).

Auriez vous une idée s'il vous plaît ?

Le repouet fait vombrir les caissons de basse.

#Ubuntu Studio 22.04 To 24.04 Upgrade Breaks Due To #PipeWire And #PulseAudio Conflict

Ubuntu Studio users are experiencing widespread failures when attempting in-place upgrades from 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS. The root cause appears to be a conflict arising from the optional switchability between PipeWire and PulseAudio sound servers in Ubuntu Studio 24.04.
