Another core dump linked to pipewire.
Could it due to same issues as this ?

Well, this does the trick for me.

Still some issues:

  • Pulseeffects bass enhancer and crystalizer totally bugged. (no soung, just noise)
  • No Xfce keyboard volume setting anymore

i have those core dumps everyday since the latest update and i don’t have pulse effects installed.
it doesn’t seem to affect sound or other things, but i’d like to get rid of this error.

@linub @dmt47 If you don’t use PipeWire then simply mask the socket as described here to get rid of this coredump.

But what if someone use PipeWire and want to fix it?

i use flatpak and if i understood correctly,i need pipewire.

i see that people managed to fix it with restarting the service;
systemctl --user restart pipewire.service
what does --user mean? do i need to put it in this command?

You also have to removed the “#” in the right file…

Write in Terminal this command:

sudo nano /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/media-session.conf

and look for this line and remove the “#” from metadata, the line should look like this after it :

    metadata                # export metadata API

Safe it and just restart Linux…

All credits goes to @MajorMayer :slight_smile: i hope this error is finally gone.

I forgot the Forum command for Code posting… anyone can help me out?

If you omit the --user option the command will use the default option --system and will fail to find the service in the system manager - Unit pipewire.service could not be found.

@Kobold @MajorMayer pipewire 1:0.3.23-1 (now on Unstable) includes session-manager fix documented here as “Don’t crash when metadata was disabled such as when not using the audio features of pipewire.” (my italics).
