2 weeks wow… Am I doomed to learning how every single component works or is there an easier way?

Not really, it adds compatibility for it. They both do more or less the same thing, only pipewire is newer and (mostly) works out of the box.
AFAIK. Pipewire won’t be able to route audio the way JACK does without the pipewire-jack package.

Nope, pipewire-jack is the package that adds an emulated jack2 server to pipewire

Pipewire should work out of the box. But routing audio would require configuration which you’ll have to manually tinker around, learn, and figure out what works for you. I took 2 weeks, might be less for you.

Which is what you need to route audio, the jack server.

How is the app that shows FPS and load stats in the corner called?

You don’t. Pipewire by itself adds the ability to connect nodes together. The pipewire-jack pkg just exposes the connections to apps using jack, like catia/carla.

So if I have to learn how stuff works is it still convenient to stay with pipewire or should I go back to jack+pulseaudio?

I see. I understand now. I never looked deeply into Pipewire (my bad!). But if Pipewire has the ability to add nodes then you’re set, I believe. There is a patchbay which works nicely with Pipewire. Also does Pipewire allow creating and manipulating the nodes (like in pulseaudio you have ‘sinks’ and ‘sources’)?
Peter 2022-08-04 18:47:42
Pipewire is more stable than pulse, has less latency than pulse and is easy to use like pulse. I’d say jack and pipewire are at the same level, only pipewire is way more advanced under the hood

Hey Guys, I needed help regarding an issue I am facing with my digital pen.
The huion pen and tablet used to work perfectly a few months back, but after some recent change, there seems an issue has crept in.
The issue is that when I will connect my tablet to my laptop and then try to move the pen, the pen moves perfectly but if I stop using it and then try to use it again, it does not work.(the pointer of the screen does not moves)
I searched online and found this bug that is similar but is already patched in kernel 5.16.4, I am already on 5.18.15 (link to article https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=272000)
I am using Huion inspiroy h1161 pen tablet. I have already stopped the USB auto suspension.
Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Yes! It builds on the base set by jack with convenience of pulse

You’ll need to change one line in config, to set timeout to 0

So unused nodes won’t disappear

I would disagree. PulseAudio can be super stable if you configure it well. It [Pipewire] is easy to use, sure. And JACK under the hood is pretty sophisticated too. With ALSA and PulseAudio, back then I had little reason to go to Pipewire which was only coming out.

Pipewire is convenient and more developed. PulseAudio is not. So yeah starting from Pipewire is good for you.

No, its irrelevant now, i use an alternative.

Yes, but there were a lot of problems with pulseaudio and some hardware, and pipewire aimed to solve them.

Mhmm, would pipewire require ALSA in any way or does it do the kernel stuff nicely too?

sudo cp -a /usr/share/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-config.lua /etc/wireplumber/main.lua.d/50-alsa-config.lua
Then inside the apply_properties section, and add a line that says:
[“session.suspend-timeout-seconds”] = 0
Lyroy_TheToad 2022-08-04 18:58:43
Okay (only in the file I copied?)
