Description:
- Being updated to pipewire for some days and having a sound-working system, yesterday after using my computer for a while I rebooted it and completely lost sound. - In this computer I've two sound cards: $ lspci | grep Audio 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) 02:00.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Ellesmere HDMI Audio [Radeon RX 470/480 / 570/580/590] - I usually use the ATI one to provide sound through the HDMI cable but now none of them is working. - As I said before after I had been working for a while (sound working), rebooted the computer and it seems the software can't find any of the cards: - "pavucontrol" int its configuration tab says "No cards available for configuration" - "pactl info" shows this output: Server String: /run/user/1000/pulse/native Library Protocol Version: 34 Server Protocol Version: 34 Is Local: yes Client Index: 38 Tile Size: 65472 User Name: acorbi Host Name: hal9000-casa Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 0.3.24) Server Version: 14.0.0 Default Sample Specification: float32le 2ch 48000Hz Default Channel Map: front-left,front-right Default Sink: @DEFAULT_SINK@ Default Source: @DEFAULT_SOURCE@ Cookie: b709:c254 - Please have a look at the "Default Sink" and "Default Source" outputs...it seems some variable substitution has not been made? - I use 'sway' as my 'desktop', 'fish' as my default shell instead of bash and linux-zen as kernel.

Both my `pavucontrol` and the `pactl info` where the same as yours before the downgrade
More specifically, the problems I have noticed were:
- No audio devices detected.
- Could not connect Bluetooth devices.
- Video playback would start after ~2 minute delay. Observed with VLC and web video players in Firefox. Opening VLC from the terminal shows that it times out waiting for audio device.
All these problems were fixed by downgrading
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/pipewire*-1:0.3.23-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
Thanks for the suggestions.
I can confirm that by downgrading to pipewire*-1:0.3.23-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst sound is working again!
"Did you merge the pacnew files which was included in the new package?": Certainly no.
How should I do that?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/System_maintenance#Deal_promptly_with_new_configuration_files
This should be a common system maintenance task between upgrades.
I didn't anticipate this as the cause of the issue because we're dealing with a minor point release, but with Pipewire being pre-1.0 (and assuming they're using something like SemVer), breaking changes can show up at any time.
Normally, when a `pacnew` file is generated, I'll take a look. I didn't notice the new configuration files because of some formatting issues I need to resolve with my use of Powerpill and aria2c. That's definitely on me. Apologies, and thanks for the tip, Morten!
For anyone else who comes across this issue, you might find `pacdiff` extremely helpful in catching any new configuration files you might have previously missed.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman/Pacnew_and_Pacsave#pacdiff
The tip by Morten also worked for me.
The problem was in the configuration, replaced /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/media-session.conf with /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/media-session.conf.pacnew and restarted pipewire.
Pipewire works again:
