Pipewire: sound not working after update/HDMI monitor added

Support Sound
1

Hey there,

Recently did a pacman update, and added an HDMI monitor. Looking through the pacman log, the said update did touch upon the pipewire and alsa packages, so I’m not sure if this is the cause of it or the configuration somehow got messed up since now the monitor might be detected as a playback device (HDMI).

The device I primarily use for audio (USB DAC) is detected just fine by lsusb and shows up with aplay:

I have a custom configuration under ~/config/pipewire/ to enable me to output hi-res audio through the DAC. Tried moving the folder out, but I still have the same errors as above.

Any idea where to troubleshoot next?

Thanks in advance.

ALSA data shows HDMI connection to E24-48 monitor

Any idea where to troubleshoot next?

Check card Profiles in

pactl list cards

Card might be turned off – Active Profile: Off – or using a profile for a different output

3

Hey there, thanks for the answer.

$ pactl list cards
Connection failure: Connection refused

How does one do that exactly? I tried looking this up, but didn’t come up with any solutions. Is this done through ALSA or Pipewire?

In the meantime I blacklisted the HDMI and HDA from modprobe as I remembered I did once:

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf 
blacklist snd_hda_intel
blacklist snd_hda_codec_hdmi

This got rid of the integrated and HDMI cards, however it hasn’t solved the issue.

Try testing audio playback direct to ALSA device

speaker-test -Dhw:0,0 -t wav -c2 -l2

If that works issue is with pipewire/wireplumber

If it does not work get more detailed information about audio devices detected in ALSA

sudo alsa-info.sh --upload
5

Thank you once again for the reply.

$ speaker-test -Dhw:0,0 -t wav -c2 -l2

speaker-test 1.2.12

Playback device is hw:0,0
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
WAV file(s)
Sample format not available for playback: Invalid argument
Setting of hwparams failed: Invalid argument

Output of alsa-info.sh:

https://alsa-project.org/db/?f=a344d7ddd2133ca7fdf61b945be3b866919d99fc

The ALSA error is quite surprising, the USB DAC was working mighty fine before all this.

6

DAC does not like 16 bit audio sample format S16_LE

Use this command to stop all pipewire/wireplumber services

systemctl --user stop pipewire-pulse.socket pipewire-pulse.service pipewire.socket pipewire.service wireplumber.service

and try using an audio player (e.g. audacious) that can be configured to play direct to ALSA device with different bit-depth settings - 16, 24 or 32 bits

7

Alright, I tried Audacity, since it was what I had on hand, and playback does indeed work. Tried to switch the project to all the available bit depths, and they all worked. Tried to look into the settings of speaker-test, but there doesn’t seem to be any flags for that. I tried to play a pre-defined wav file as well which didn’t have the offending bit depth, but it didn’t work either (maybe I issued the wrong command?)

speaker-test -Dhw:0,0 -t wav -c2 -l2 -w path-to-file.wav
8

speaker-test does not have an option to change bit-depth

But If Audacity can play audio to the DAC in ALSA, that is sufficient to confirm it is working to play audio to ALSA device

I suggest reboot system and check if pipewire services start correctly

systemctl --user status wireplumber pipewire pipewire-pulse

Hello again,

Much as anticipated, the wireplumber service doesn’t start, like previously.

Alright, after some more poking around, I managed to partially fix the issue by removing /etc/wireplumber/wireplumber.conf. Seems the format of the old configuration file was causing issues.

Seems this causes a dependency issue, however since there are no details provided, I’m not sure what’s the said missing dependency.

If I remove the pipewire config files from under ~/.config/pipewire, it starts as expected:

But of course this means I’m not able to play high-res audio at the intended sample rate/bit depth. As such, could anyone suggest me where I could ask for configuration issues?
I can send the configuration files if they are of any help.

Migrating configuration from 0.4 — WirePlumber 0.5.5 documentation

The configuration file format has changed in version 0.5. No automatic migration of old configuration files is performed, so you will have to manually update them

Issue was resolved by removing outdated/incorrect user configurations not mentioned in previous comments
