How do completely remove PulseAudio? When I installed PipeWire using sudo pacman -S manjaro-pipewire
, it prompts for conflicts between existing Pulesaudio packages and I entered Yes for everything. After reboot, inxi -Fazy
still shows PulseAudio as a Sound server but it’s not running. I also checked systemctl
, but no Pulseaudio-related services running.
inxi -Fazy
