![]() ![]() If not, you might need to restart (PulseAudio tends to be rather persistent). Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 0.3.23) If everything worked well pactl info should report Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 0.3.23): $ pactl info | grep "Server Name" $ systemctl -user start pipewire pipewire-pulse ![]() $ systemctl -user enable pipewire pipewire-pulse $ systemctl -user stop pulseaudio.socket rvice etc/systemd/userĭisable PulseAudio services and enable the PipeWire ones $ systemctl -user disable pulseaudio.socket rvice It will instruct PipeWire to handle Bluetooth audio devices.Ĭopy the pipewire-pulse systemd service: $ sudo cp /usr/share/doc/pipewire/examples/systemd/user/pipewire-pulse.

Update: PipeWire-0.3.30 made the replacement process simpler. That is the difference between 90’s era call quality sound and modern call quality sound. The difference is significant, as the CSVD only supported narrow band speech (NBS, 8kHz) compared with mSBC support for wide band speech (WBS, 16kHz). This profile support mSBC codec versus CSVD supported by the older HSP/HFP profiles. Starting with PipeWire 0.3.20 introduced native mSBC support. The appeal, for me at least, to switch over from PulseAudio to PipeWire stems from PipeWire’s better support of bluetooth audio, and especially support for modern A2DP codecs such as AptX, AptX HD and LDAC. It also provides an audio server which can replace PulseAudio. PipeWire is a multimedia server, best known for it’s video support in Wayland. ![]()
