AV-Linux Enlightenment Pipewire Metadata Settings

Hi,
I have a question about the "PW-Tools Metadata Settings" Tool. When I change settings there, they are not permanent. After a reboot they are reverted to "0" and I have to set them again.
Is that the default behavior or should they normally stay "where I left them"?
I have to mention that I switched back to XFCE as Desktop, is that maybe an issue here?

Do you have a dual desktop setup booting to systemd by any chance?
Also, always include your QSI (Quick System Info) when asking for help. It helps to narrow down things.

I think you can name it a dual desktop, since i did not delete Enlightenment, or did I get you wrong here?
And yes, its booting into systemd.

Hi,
The metadata tool is in a very early iteration at this point and currently isn't persistent and has no conf file. I thought most often Users would probably want the PipeWire defaults for regular computer use and would see the tool as a dynamic 'as-needed' way when changes were required.
*Note that the "System Editor" in the Accessories menu gives access the the main PipeWire configs if you want to make permanent global changes there:
