Bug#1079390: kde-standard: Replace pulseaudio with pipewire-audio
Package: kde-standard
Version: 5:142
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i
Dear Maintainer,
Pipewire is already usable in Debian 12 and is included by default in gnome-
core. Pulseaudio is going by the wayside, and pipewire is its superior
replacement. There is no reason to not replace pulseaudio with pipewire-audio,
and it will greatly improve the user experience with audio.
As for config conflicts, as far as I know, pipewire-audio is a drop-in
replacement for pulseaudio, so there shouldn't be any broken configs when users
upgrade.
