Games like Enemy Territory Quake Wars and Quake 4 sound stop working with pipewire using pipewire plumber.. with pulseaudio it works fine. On ETQW for example I get.. I copied alsa-lib (32bit) folder to game's folder but still same problem. ----- Initializing Sound System ------ sound system initialized. -------------------------------------- ------ Alsa Sound Initialization ----- dlopen(libasound.so.2) asoundlib version: 1.2.9 [E] pw.loop [loop.c:67 pw_loop_new()] 0xc1bdb40: can't make support.system handle: No such file or directory snd_pcm_open SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK 'default' failed: No such file or directory dlclose WARNING: sound subsystem disabled I don`t know where to report it upstream with pipewire's dev. I will test more steam games.. I remember that Electronic SuperJoy on steam stop working as well as others I forgot the name but, I was able to make it work with the next commands. sudo touch /usr/bin/pulseaudio sudo chmod 0755 /usr/bin/pulseaudio Unfortunately ETQW and Quake 4 don`t work except going back to pulseaudio,, I think I was able to make it work on the past with pipewire but I forgot to take note on the solution.

Please say what games packages (& versions) you are bugging.

Hello Lewis The games I an testing are: Quake 4 and Enemy Territory Quake wars from idSoftware the last versions idsoftware relased. If I go back to pulseaudio they work fine and the used to work fine also with pipewire but after an update no more SND_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK, ETQW-client-1.0-1.5-update.exe quake4_linux_1.4.2.x86.run You can download the demo that also fails. https://cdn.splashdamage.com/downloads/games/etqw/ETQW-demo2-client-full.r1.x86.run Regards
Is this issue still present in current Cauldron? It is over a year later and most of Cauldron has changed.
