Long, Boring Linux Talk
When I'm not with His Hotness, life is pretty quiet. So quiet, I'm revisiting old #GNU #Linux distros, the most recent of these is called Slint, a #blindness and #accessibility optimized offering, based on #slackware and the #salix project. The distro uses two concurrent audio subsystems, #ALSA for #TTS and #Pulseaudio for media apps. It took some knob twiddling to get the audio almost the way I want it. How'bout the video?

@aeva Maybe #Wine will implement MS MIDI to Wine when this is done...
At the moment MIDI is done via #Pulseaudio which bricks almost all MIDI devices in Wine...
@governa@fosstodon.org#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.

@itsfoss 1 correction though: You claim “you can't rely on ALSA as it will take control of the entire sound device, so you can only use it to handle one application at a time. So no hardware multiplexing.”
That’s false. I remember my main advantage switching from OSS to ALSA was being to play 2 apps at the same time. I still feel like #PulseAudio is the new kid on the block—now I feel old
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture explicitly lists “Hardware mixing of multiple channels.” as a feature.
Does anyone of a #linux / #ubuntu bent out there know how to connect to chromecast audio devices in this Brave New World of #pipewire?
It was really easy with #pulseaudio and #dlna to reroute the output of specific apps to chromecast devices, but I can't figure it out at all with pipewire.
I just want to play music from #cider on my hifi

Regarding the #postmarketos 24.06 release (congrats and thanks to all contributors!) I wanted to add a detail that I think wasn't really mentioned in the posts I saw so far: this release come with #libcamera + #pipewire support by default - even if #pulseaudio is used for audio.
That means that screensharing on #wayland should work OOTB and - more crucially - that a camera stack is in place that allows a much greater number of apps to use cameras - including sandboxed ones.
Do you use #pipewire, #pulseaudio, #jack or #alsa with your #daw? Personally, I use PipeWire with WirePlumber and I am pretty satisfied with it. #linuxaudio #linux #musicproduction
FreeBSD Project-packaged Chromium 125.0.6422.76 will default to PulseAudio, if PulseAudio is enabled.
Please test 125.0.6422.76 or greater with FreeBSD 14.1-BETA3 or a release candidate. 14.1 includes significant improvements to audio (release notes are not yet complete).

@itsfoss Pipewire is better because it supports audio and video devices and does both PulseAudio and JACK functionality. But the correct answer would be, "the one that works for me!" If Pipewire not working properly, then continue using PulseAudio.
The long wait is over for users of FreeBSD.
Uncomplicated use of PulseAudio is on the horizon.

?) @wyatt8740@tech.lgbt@nina_kali_nina That UI reminds me of Gnome 3 :'(
I'm trying to build it now but it looks like it might require pulseaudio under linux. A complete dealbreaker for me if true. I do not negotiate with pulseaudio. It gets removed from everything I use and has never caused me anything but trouble when installed.
Now I want to ask you guys something.
Does your distro come with PipeWire? (`/usr/bin/pipewire` exists)
If so, does it fake the existence of PulseAudio? (`pulseaudio --check` doesn't return an error)
I really wonder how other distros than Arch handle this kind of issue.
