Title:
No AC3/EAC3 Ubuntu 22.10
Status in pavucontrol package in Ubuntu:

Status in wireplumber package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I posted the same issue in Pipewire Issues and Pipewire-Wirplumber
@Gitlab. There someone suggested it might be a Wireplumber issue so
I'm going to try my luck here.
I recently upgraded to 22.10 with Pipewire as audio server. In Ubuntu
22.04 I used to be able to control the audio formats which my receiver
can decode with Pulse Audio Volume Control. Now this doesn't work
anymore. My receiver no longer switches between DD, DD+ and DTS
signals (defaults to DD). For example, when I play DTS audio, my
receiver stays on DD.
In PulseAudio Volume Control I can still set which formats my receiver
understands, but after a reboot these options are all turned off
again. So these settings are not saved.
When I set the audio formats back in PulseAudio Volume Control after a
reboot, DTS is passed on to my receiver, AC3 and EAC3 too (my receiver
switches format to DD or DD+) but there's no sound or I hear
intermittently very stuttering audio, as if a piece of audio is
repeated over and over like a sample.
So without setting formats with pavucontrol there's only AC3.
AC3, EAC3 and DTS are submiited as AC3.
With formats AC3, EAC3 and DTS turned on only DTS works and EAC3 is
sent to my receiver (the display changes to DD+) but there's no sound.
I have read Wireplumber and Pipewire wikis but I can't get it to work.
How can I get Pipewire-Wireplumber to play EAC3 and other surround
formats, if at all possible?
