*** Bug 2065175 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Different approach: 1. dnf swap --allowerasing pipewire-pulseaudio pulseaudio 2. reboot 3. login 4. systemctl --user stop pipewire.socket 5. systemctl --user stop pipewire.service 6. systemctl --user stop wireplumber 7. systemctl --user start pulseaudio.socket 8. systemctl --user start pulseaudio.service This makes all the controls in gnome-control-center work, I can see the progress bars, I can hear the test sound. But it seems no other apps cant access sound devices, e.g. playing video in firefox ended with error regarding sound system. I can't also see no apps that would be using pulseaudio via pavucotrol for example. You should not stop pipewire and wireplumber, this will break screensharing and possibly other things. You however need to disable the audio parts of wireplumber or they will keep the audio device (DBus) locked. I'll find out how to best do that.. Also: sudo dnf remove pipewire-alsa pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit To remove alsa and jack compatibility layers And sudo dnf install alsa-plugins-pulseaudio To reinstall the alsa pulseaudio plugins. OK I did: dnf swap --allowerasing pipewire-pulseaudio pulseaudio dnf remove pipewire-alsa pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit dnf install alsa-plugins-pulseaudio reboot after the reboot pulseaudio service/socket were not running, but systemctl --user start pulseaudio.socket systemctl --user start pulseaudio.service brought soud back and it seems pulseaudio is now hadnling the sound. So I guess this can now be documented and if there is a way how to make the swap process more easy lets do it in z-stream. Leaving a NEEDINFO on Marek just to be sure he sees it The package should be in the latest RHEL 9 Appstream now. Would someone be willing to verify that this works now without having to install any packages or enabling any repositories? If so, we can consider making a zstream for this The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 120 days |
