This is not a crusade against pipewire. An upgrade of vlc related to piprewire was just breaking my audio system (not just vlc, but also ogg123, and ogg123 remained broken even after removing pipewire). In any case, if there is an intent to switch to the pipewire sound server, this should be announced and things should be consistent between the various Debian packages. Moreover, users (including me) may currently want to stick with pulseaudio for various reasons. In particular, pipewire/wireplumber works poorly with headphones: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/wireplumber/-/issues/267 -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
