Title: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: dpanter on 2021/10/22, 17:00:05: DU currently removes pipewire-media-session as it's not ~~yet~~ updated to 0.3.39-1, meaning you no longer have any visible sound devices. Fun side effect, konsole hangs when trying to send a bell. :)

Downgrade all the pipewire packages to 0.3.38-2 to fix it for now.
Code: [Select]
sudo apt install {pipewire-media-session,libpipewire-0.3-0,libpipewire-0.3-common,libpipewire-0.3-modules,pipewire-audio-client-libraries,pipewire-bin,pipewire-pulse,pipewire-tests,pipewire,libspa-0.2-modules,libpipewire-0.3-0:i386,libpipewire-0.3-modules:i386,libspa-0.2-modules:i386,pipewire:i386}=0.3.38-2
Title: Re: DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: Pip on 2021/10/22, 21:32:57: Thanks for trying to fix it. For me, it just says that version 0.3.38-2 of all the packages can't be found.
Title: Re: DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: dpanter on 2021/10/22, 21:54:03: Ah sorry, 0.3.38-2 is available in Testing.
Title: Re: DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: dpanter on 2021/10/23, 14:29:06: After reading the changelog, it seems pipewire-media-session is out and wireplumber is the new hotness. Ran a new DU, installed wireplumber, rebooted, configured sound device settings and sound is now working again. Using external DAC via optical cable and it's running 192 KHz just fine.

Snipped the relevant changelog entries:
Code: [Select]
pipewire (0.3.39-1) unstable; urgency=medium * Don't build the pipewire-media-session binary package anymore, media-session has moved to a separate module to accelerate its deprecation in favour of WirePlumber. * Change priority order between pipewire-media-session and wireplumber, WirePlumber is now the recommended session manager.

As the changelog explained, pipewire-media-session is replaced by wireplumber!
That is not a bug, and do not break pipewire on a full-upgraded sid/unstable.
To install wireplumber you have to purge pipewire-media-session and install wireplumber.

What I did/ had to do to install wireplumber (I had to remove /etc/systemd/user/pipewire-session-manager.service before it worked),

Code: [Select]
apt purge pipewire-media-session rm /etc/systemd/user/pipewire-session-manager.service apt install wireplumber
Code: [Select]
LANG=C apt policy pipewire-media-session pipewire-media-session: Installed: (none) Candidate: 0.3.38-2 Version table: 0.3.38-2 500 500 http://deb.debian.org/debian testing/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: devil on 2021/10/27, 20:53:25: There will be a package pipewire-media-session again, it is waiting in NEW. What happened is, pipewire-media-session was made a standalone package and will eventually be succeeded by wireplumber, which is the new session-manager for pipewire.

Post by: finotti on 2021/10/27, 21:24:50: @devil: Sorry for the ignorance, but what does NEW stand for?
Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: hendrikL on 2021/10/28, 10:43:32: I think, devil can explain it much better than me.

But for the start

https://ftp-master.debian.org/#new

Mostly you can find it out with "rmadison" (part of 'devscripts') like:

Code: [Select]
:~$ rmadison pipewire-media-session pipewire-media-session | 0.3.38-2 | testing | amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x pipewire-media-session | 0.4.0-1 | new | source, amd64
Packages in NEW (entirely new or with significant changes) are on the way, but have to be checked and accepted by the ftp-masters of debian.

If the maintainer has no luck, it could be in the NEW-query for a long, long time!
Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: finotti on 2021/10/28, 13:22:56: Thanks hendrikL! It's hard to search for a term like "new". (And I thought it was an acronym.)

Part of the reason I asked was because devil had also mentioned that ksysguard was in NEW, but I cannot find it in the list (and it is still not installable).
Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: devil on 2021/10/28, 14:13:54: @finotti: The new Systemmonitor (successor of ksysguard) runs fine unter 5.23 in sid. The following packages are installed:

Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: finotti on 2021/10/28, 14:42:12: Ah! I thought a new version of ksysguard was suppose to come in. Thanks @devil! All is working as expected.
Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: whistler_mb on 2021/10/28, 16:00:33: Could it be that you mean this version?

Code: [Select]
$ apt policy plasma-systemmonitor plasma-systemmonitor: Installed: 5.23.2-1~np1 Candidate: 5.23.2-1~np1 Version table: *** 5.23.2-1~np1 500 500 https://downloadcontent.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/npreining:/debian-kde:/plasma523/Debian_Unstable ./ Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 5.23.0-2 500 500 http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: dpanter on 2021/10/28, 16:41:32: ksysguard and the new plasma-systemmonitor are different.
It can be noted that ksysguard provides data for some widgets like Thermal Monitor, Resources Monitor, Netspeed Widget etc. Removing ksysguard means these no longer function. Guessing this may be fixed later.

What happened to my topic? :P
Title: Re: [SOLVED] DU breaks pipewire (incomplete 0.3.39-1 atm)
Post by: devil on 2021/10/29, 14:05:10: I guess I was puzzled :)

On topic I can state that pipewire works fine with wireplumber instead of pipewire-media-session.

i also ran into the issue on the dist-upgrade. reading through the thread, i got my audio back by running wireplumber manually as user. now, my main question is, how to get it running as daemon automatically on boot?

pipewire-session-manager was removed/purgedcompletely

running wireplumber as application from konsole enables audio devices, and everything seems fine... logout or reboot requires to manually start wireplumber again.

Simply installing wireplumber should handle everything for you. Purge everything you did there and reinstall wireplumber, let it install the proper services. Check the output for any issues. Once rebooted, check that wireplumber.service has started and pipewire-media-session.service is deleted or masked/dead.

You do have libwireplumber-0.4-0:amd64 installed... ;) Not sure how it's working here to be honest, as I understand it, the wireplumber (or pipewire-media-session) binary needs to run as a user process.
In any case, working is working. :)
