Quoting the instructions:
| Code: |
Root user may replace --user with --global to change system default
configuration for all of the above commands.

That doesn't mean you should do it. It says system defaults can be changed that way. You don't need to do that. Anyways, I'm trying to figure out why the errors occurred.
So you run the commands with --user as root or you didn't?

I hear you.
What are the consequences? |
Well it's kind of funny. If you run them as root, the --user commands should have set the defaults for root. That's what --user param to systemctl does - changes for the particular user. However after running the --global, you set the defaults for all users, making the --user command for root redundant.
Anyways, I'm trying to find out if that was the reason they failed. You still haven't answered the question, were you logged in as root when you run those:

Sorry about that.
It appears that I ran them all as root according to the bash history. |

Is there any difference? I think there was some configuration to prevent pulseaudio-daemon from spawning a server, but I'd prefer to ditch it altogether.
You can try to unmerge it manually or wait for the moderators to move your thread to Portage & Programming and see if someone more knowledgeable than me has a better idea. I've already requested it.
If you try to unmerge it and it gets pulled in again, please post the output of the emerge command with additional --tree parameter so that we can see what pulls it in.
Best Regards,
Georgi |

Also, the enabling of pipewire service and socket, disabling pulseaudio service and socket on the user level executed without error. I am sill not seeing any audio devices in Gnome.

I have recompiled the media-video/pipewire with the USE flag "sound-server".
Gnome is still reporting 0 available output devices.
It is odd, my understanding is that Gnome brought in Pipewire, and PulseAudio is pretty standardized.
| Code: |
shinobi@thezengarden ~ $ ps -aux | grep pipewire
shinobi 1135 0.0 0.0 31008 7684 ? S<sl 15:33 0:00 /usr/bin/pipewire
shinobi 1621 0.0 0.1 27156 9088 ? S<sl 15:33 0:00 /usr/bin/pipewire-pulse
shinobi 2303 0.0 0.0 6620 2048 pts/0 S+ 15:35 0:00 grep --colour=auto pipewire
|
And, both the pulse adapter and the pipewire service are running. |

Interesting that Pulse sound server is still an option.

| It is working now. Wireplumber service wasn't active. Thank you so much. I really appreciated the time you spent to debug all this. You definitely brought me to this point. |

You're welcome. I think you can unmerge pulseaudio-daemon now if you want. Also check if pulseaudio has daemon USE flag enabled. I think that might be the culprit of all problems. If it does, disable it and run emerge --ask --depclean
p.s. if you think the issue is resolved, you can as well edit the first post and add SOLVED to the title.
Best regards,
Georgi |

I definitely learned a lot about the Linux sound system. Oddly, it is not something I have had to put much energy into. I work with Linux but either the sound system worked with the install of a Desktop environment, or the machine never intended to have sound at all. |

As a matter of fact I learned a lot too, thanks to Hu's and Neddy's earlier replays :)
Thank you too for giving me the reason to do so!
