Re: getting started with pipewire

[Haines Brown <haines@histomat.net>]

Thanks to your heldp, with the help of the correct guide it seems I was able to install 
pipewire successflly. To apply it I had to reboot. 

I assumed that once rebooted I should restart the pipewife daemon with the command as 
follows. Howerver it gave me errors:

	$ pipewire
        [E][00304.248813] mod.protocol-native | [module-protocol-:
          731 lock_socket()] server 0x55cd2eef45e0: unable to
          lock lockfile '/run/user/1000/pipewire-0.lock':
          Resource temporarily unavailable (maybe another daemon is
          running)
        [E][00304.248890] pw.conf      | [          conf.c:  594
          load_module()] 0x55cd2eedc160: could not load mandatory module
          "libpipewire-module-protocol-native": Resource temporarily
          unavailable
        [E][00304.248930] default      | [      pipewire.c:  125 main()]
          failed to create context: Resource temporarily unavailable

It looks like the daemon could not be started because the pipewire daemon was aleady 
running and created a lock. Does a roboot start the daemon automatically? If the daemon 
is alreaduy running, how does one pipewife?
