Bug Description
Hello.
I've just upgraded Ubuntu from 22.04 to 22.10 some days ago. I'm experimenting some troubles by watching any online video stream and any mp4 videos saved on my PC. Basically they don't flow. To make them flow I should press the play button again and again and again and everytime I press it,only a small portion of the video go on. In addition,no audio output device work on my PC. After having exposed the problem in several places,I've found the reason because a nice reddit user gave to me a suggestion. He says that the cause of the problem is pipewire-
$ systemctl --user unmask pulseaudio
$ systemctl --user --now disable pipewire-
$ systemctl --user --now disable pipewire pipewire-pulse
$ systemctl --user --now enable pulseaudio.service pulseaudio.socket
sudo apt remove pipewire-
I suppose that those commands enable pulseaudio and remove pipewire. Infact the problems that I've explained above, go away. Instead,when I try to enable pipewire + wireplumber issuing the following commands the problems come back :
$ sudo apt install libldacbt-
$ sudo apt install libspa-
$ systemctl --user --now enable wireplumber.service
$ sudo cp /usr/share/
$ sudo apt remove pulseaudio-
Its now clear that some elements of pipewire does not work correctly on Ubuntu 22.10,in some situation. I could still use PulseAudio,but I want to understand how to fix the problems pipewire is affected by. Someone can help me ?
I've booted ubuntu budgie as virtual machine within bhyve and sound worked. So,my hardware is compatible with pipewire. At this point pipewire could not work in ubuntu 22.10 because some bug. (take in consideration that it works with ubuntu 22.04).
