People,
Some told me they thought that browsers talked directly to the
soundcard?
With upgrading from F33 (X/XFCE4/ALSA) to F34 (Wayland/Sway/PipeWire) I
have been thrashing the system a bit to see how it goes and found trying
to serially record stuff online from three different browsers and also
recording stuff with a number of apps causes me to lose access to the
default mic for ALL inputs . .
Since I don't have any trouble PLAYING from as many sources as I want to
but ONLY recording, I have turned OFF access to the mic for all the
browsers (C, FF, B) and will try to only use stand-alone apps that need
the mic (using default) ie audacity, jisti, obs, zoom, arecord etc - I
will see how that approach goes for a while.
Also, because of problems in the early days with PulseAudio, I got into
the habit of routinely uninstalling it and just using ALSA plus my
.asoundrc file - now I thought PW was going to completely replace PA but
I see there are still a number of RPMs installed:
alsa-lib-1.2.5.1-2.fc34.x86_64
alsa-sof-firmware-1.8-1.fc34.noarch
alsa-ucm-1.2.5.1-2.fc34.noarch
alsa-utils-1.2.5.1-1.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-alsa-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-gstreamer-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-libs-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-pulseaudio-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire-utils-0.3.35-2.fc34.x86_64
pipewire0.2-libs-0.2.7-5.fc34.x86_64
pulseaudio-libs-14.2-3.fc34.x86_64
pulseaudio-libs-glib2-14.2-3.fc34.x86_64
pulseaudio-qt-1.2-5.fc34.x86_64
pulseaudio-utils-14.2-3.fc34.x86_64
Any info on how this stuff is supposed to work / hang together would be
appreciated! - a diagram somewhere would be great!
Regards,
Phil.
