Enabling wireplumber makes microhpne dissappear
I installed pipewire followign this guide: https://pipewire-debian.github.io/pipewire-debian/#add-the-launchpad-ppa
When I enabled wireplumber with
systemctl --user disable --now pipewire-media-session.service
systemctl --user enable --now wireplumber.service
My microphone stops working and stops being visible to all applications using pipewire. Reversing the commands above fixes the situation.
arecord --duration=2 --format=dat --device=hw:0,0 test-mic.wav
records sound though.
I am on Lenovo X1 Extreme gen 2 and on Kubuntu 22.04
I am not ruling out I did something stupid to my sound configuration, but I am not aware of anything. I installed the latest release of Alsa from github (I was trying to test a feature I suggested from that release) and I poked around wireplumber configuration files but I think I have not changed anything as I truthfully didn't know what I was looking at. I am on 0.3.57.r4.gf9574355-1~ubuntu22.04 but this was also happening with the previous release.
