I switched to PipeWire some time ago. I don't have particularly complex audio needs (just AUX/headphones on a desktop). When the system is under load and the CPU throttled, I get choppy audio, which is especially annoying when the load is caused by a video. That doesn't happen with PulseAudio and setting the quantum to 2048 is a workaround. pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-quantum 2048 Probably there are more of these sorts of issues, so I agree we should switch to it by default sooner rather than later to find the problems. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
