Request addition to pipewire config - auto switch

[wbrells]

Well, it appears that PipeWire is now installed and running:

Code: Select all

Audio:     Device-1: Intel driver: snd_hda_intel v: kernel alternate: snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl 
           bus-ID: 00:1f.3 chip-ID: 8086:54c8 class-ID: 0403 
           Sound Server-1: ALSA v: k6.6.11-amd64 running: yes 
           Sound Server-2: PulseAudio v: 16.1 running: no 
           Sound Server-3: PipeWire v: 1.0.0 running: yes 

However, the MX Select Sound app still only shows PCH as the current default sound card and no other options are shown. Perhaps I need to modify /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire-pulse.conf per an earlier comment in order for Bluetooth audio to show up as a sound option and for my paired Bluetooth headset to start working?

Thanks once more, Wayne

I choose mine out of the pavucontrol or the xfce volume plugin.

if its not showing up, you may need to play around with the audio profiles in the bluetooth manager.

I'm very confused! My Mpow H17 Bluetooth headset is connected, paired, and shows up in the Volume Control:



I hear a 'beep' when I click on the volume slider for that device. However, even with pipewire installed and apparently running, I can't change the default sound card to anything other than PCH... I tried the modification to pipewire-pulse.conf suggested in an earlier comment, but that didn't do anything! It would really be helpful if someone could suggest how I can change the default sound card to something other than PCH...

Hi, I had the same problem and was about to open a new thread ,
the bluetooth was not communicating with any devices, despite recognising them (although as soon as I installed the operating system from scratch a few days ago, everything was working).

With your command and a reboot, the problem seems to be solved.

Sorry, I just realised, and immediately translated

Glad to hear that and thank you for the feedback :)
