Pipewire is newer and emulates PulseAudio so that it can be used as a drop-in replacement. There's literally a command called
pipewire-pulserelated to this.It makes me wonder if they really have both installed or are mistaking Pipewire's emulation for an active PulseAudio installation, and so it's just Pipewire that's acting up.
I'd say reboot, but being in space might be one of those times where that's a non-starter. In which case, they're going to have to get their hands dirty unpicking system hooks and trying to reattach them all again as and when Pipewire's working again, assuming it doesn't do that automatically.
I never had a problem with either Pipewire or real PulseAudio back when that was current. I had motherboard sound physically pop, requiring the purchase of a separate sound card, but never a driver issue, so I can't even imagine what might be going on.
I'm pretty sure this is a meme based on the real report that they had 2 instances of outlook on windows and not real.
Wait, they had two instances of not real? They are learning too much.
Dad, don't do this in front of my friends. You're embarrassing me.
Sorry I am autistic and often don't know how to properly formulate my thoughts into sentences :D
You're in the right place, most social media users can't properly formulate their thoughts into sentences, lol.
