The xf86-video-intel driver has nothing to do with the camera (v4l2) or audio (alsa) subsystems. They are quite orthogonal. Now, if the mentioned programs refuse to work - without any v4l2/alsa/pcm warnings - then the issue might be xf86-video-intel related. For a dead trivial way to dismiss issues related to X (via xf86-video-intel or otherwise) and Wayland compositors - switch to a VT and run the following: $ gst-launch-1.0 autovideosrc device=/dev/video0 ! autovideosink This should work with nvidia, although I haven't tried. Note that you might need to bump the number video0 to video1... -Emil
