I am currently facing an issue with my qtile setup and the integration of Pipewire. I am encountering the following error message: "pactl info Connection failure: Connection refused pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused." :cry:

To provide some context, I have included relevant snippets from my startup.sh, .xprofile, .xinitrc, and pipewire.conf files below:

startup.sh:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/picom --config ~/.config/picom/picom.conf &
/usr/bin/nitrogen --restore &
#/usr/bin/pipewire &
#/usr/bin/pipewire-pulse &
#/usr/bin/wireplumber &
/usr/bin/gentoo-pipewire-launcher &
/usr/bin/lxqt-policykit-agent &

.xprofile:
Code:
/usr/bin/gentoo-pipewire-launcher &

.xinitrc:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/qtile start
#dbus-run-session /usr/bin/qtile start

pipewire.conf:
https://pastebin.com/AZgpnf7h

Additionally, I have removed all configurations in Pulse.

I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue. As a first-time Gentoo user, I am eager to successfully configure my system, which took me two days to install. Any guidance or support you can provide would be immensely helpful.

Thank you for taking the time to read my request. I look forward to your prompt response. :D

problem was I wasn't RTFM :evil:

and build pipewire with what I want
just this
LMAO
