…Already tried switching to pulseaudio:
$ sudo pacman -S pulseaudio pulseaudio-bluetooth
and back to pipewire:
$ sudo pacman -S --needed pipewire pipewire-pulse
Read/tried
- Pulseaudio speakers not getting detected, port is "unplugged"
- Replace pipewire by pulseaudio - #8 by jonathon
…and switched between pipewire-media-session manager and wireplumber, too:
$ yay -S pipewire-media-session
$ rm -R ~/.config/pulse ~/.local/state/wireplumber
<…>
$ yay -S wireplumber
$ rm -R ~/.config/pulse ~/.local/state/pipewire
…what to say, Mr. ricklinux: seems we both are following the same paths - that actually are leading us to nowhere.
And after all, ‘some way’ it works: at least as long as some 5.15.+ -realtime linux-rt-lts will be available.
And just to avoid surprises:
$ grep '^IgnorePkg' /etc/pacman.conf
IgnorePkg = linux-rt-lts linux-rt-lts-headers.
And just in case, I’ve got my btrfs snapshots: and again, I can manually activate a bluetooth speaker.
Not so orthodox, nor clean - at all - but… shall we consider this thread at least temporarily closed?
I do appreciate your help, but I don’t want this to turn into a nightmare.
It’s up to you, Mistah - thanks.
