channelmix.mix-lfe should probably be enabled by default
- PipeWire version (
pipewire --version
): 0.3.51 - Distribution and distribution version (
PRETTY_NAME
from/etc/os-release
): Arch Linux - Desktop Environment: GNOME
Description of Problem:
It seems that current policy of pipewire default settings is to allow user to hear all sounds played by applications. For this channelmix.mix-lfe should be enabled by default.
Also config examples are inconsistent about is it enabled or disabled by default.
How Reproducible:
Reproducible on a system with stereo audio output.
Go to https://www2.iis.fraunhofer.de/AAC/multichannel.html Try to play Original Wave File. Firefox uses internal mixer and LFE is clearly audible. If you use Chromium or download file and play it with pw-play/paplay LFE is muted.
