fwiw, i just nuked pipewire and installed pulse stuff and now everything works on my desktop machine running trixie.
Yeah. Through three Leap versions I struggled to get PulseAudio to work, and once I finally did they wished Pipewire on me. Supposedly Pipewire is necessary to get audio out of Flatpaks etc. I'm planning to install Windoze in a VM for gaming, and I don't know if that will require Pipewire as well. Anyone know?
