Description of Problem:
Am I the only one having the issue of manually having to change headphone priorities with Pipewire because it doesn’t automatically redirect to my headphones when plugged in? If not, where can we post a feature request for that functionality? From: https://twitter.com/m00nra1n/status/1461517891832934403
I have the same issue, I have a Laptop HP 250 G8 with integrated sound:
Driver Realtek High-Definition (HD) Audio
When I connect the external USB headset:
Microsoft LIfeChat LX-3000
The headset only works with I manually change in pavucontrol
After copy from share to /etc and editing the pipewire-pulse.conf, to load the module-switch-on-connect, appears to be work for the twitter user: https://twitter.com/m00nra1n/status/1461541020751917056
But the file is replaced after packages updates. And there isn't a GUI for visual config for commons users.
How Reproducible:
- Replace old audio to Pipewire
- Try to use normal
- Try to plug external USB headset
- The audio isn't moved automatically to the headset
- Change the config, after manually copy configs files
- Works and audio is moved auto to headset(Not works for me, but works for twitter user)
- Lost the config when updates
Steps to Reproduce:
- Edit config files
- Make pipewire works as needed
- Lost config when packege updates
Actual Results:
I can use ~/.config folder, but isn't ideal, because I can't need to upgrade the config when version changes. There is not a GUI for that type of config.
Expected Results:
Easy way to activate options, like option to move audio active to external plugged headset automatically. And GUI for the configs, solving the problem of losing config after package updated.
