Or maybe not. This talk will explore the features and changes involved in switching a system from Pulseaudio to Pipwire for audio device management.</p> <p>The new Pipewire daemon promises to improve the state of audio playback on Linux but with this change comes questions regarding the impact to different users and use cases. In this talk I'll go over the impact Pipewire can have for various different users and provide a basic configuration for those brave enough to give it a try. I will also outline some of the history surrounding the audio stack in Linux with a focus on how Pipewire plans to implement new features while maintaining compatibility with older applications.</p> <p>About Ben I am a QA Test Technician with a background in tech support for Mac/Windows/Linux desktop users. When not talking to customers I can be found customizing Linux distros and building systems that solve problems before they occur.</p> <p>PLUG is open to everyone and does not tolerate abusive behavior on its mailing lists or at its meetings.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="https://pdxlinux.org">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
