Comment 4 Daniel Rusek 2021-03-24 18:50:21 UTC

I am still having these in journal when trying to use sound on Fedora 34, installed as a VM in GNOME Boxes:

bře 24 19:42:00 fedora pipewire[2110]: alsa-pcm front:0: snd_pcm_status error: Broken pipe
bře 24 19:42:00 fedora pipewire[2110]: alsa-pcm front:0: snd_pcm_status error: Broken pipe

Also, the sound is choppy and crackling sometimes.

This is my PipeWire version:

$ rpm -q pipewire
pipewire-0.3.24-1.fc34.x86_64

It should be the latest version from FEDORA-2021-2c994d0609.
