• Bug#1100943: pipewire: Same issue here, same workarounds help

    From Richard Scherping@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 23 16:10:02 2025
    Followup-For: Bug #1100943
    Package: pipewire
    Version: 1.4.1-1

    Dear Maintainer,

    since a recent package upgrade I had intermittent distorted sound when
    watching videos, both via Firefox and mpv.

    Thanks a lot to Alejandro, both the temporary workaround
    systemctl --user restart pipewire.service
    as well as the permanent workaround
    sudo apt remove fluidsynth
    worked for me on my Thinkpad P15v G3 AMD.

    Let me know what I can test to help debugging the issue.

    Regards

    Richard
