[Solved] snapclient unable to find pipewire as an output

  • Quote

Post by Jim5678 » Sat Mar 02, 2024 10:23 am

Hi,
I'm having problems getting my snapcast client to talk to my pipewire system. Snapserver is running as root on this system, and both of my standard users are members of the pipewire group. It looks like snapclient is only seeing low-level audio devices rather than servers. I've had this working fine on this machine until a recent update. The audio works fine for things like youtube. I'm using KDE and systemd. When I search for audio output using snapclient I get this;

It's pipewire that needs to be recompiled, not snapclient. Do you know how to set use flags in package.use?

Best Regards,
Georgi
