I switched by #oneplus6 on #postmarketOs edge back to pulseaudio and disabling the suspend on idle like explained here https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/OnePlus_6_(oneplus-enchilada)#Audio_in_calls But it is eating much more battery. I have seen @gnumdk@floss.social posting a patch upstream that might help (and probably help with pipewire), curious to know what the status here, or if there are better workarounds (my previous one is to reboot after each call with pipewire as the first call never fail)
In case you never read it, read "No Silver Bullet" from F.Brooks from 1986, that is still very relevant this day, especially in the days of #GenAI . Out of curiosity, I asked #Claude to analyze this and it concluded "If anything, Brooks' framework helps us use AI more wisely: reach for it eagerly for the boilerplate, the scaffolding, the syntax. But don't mistake speed for understanding. The hard part — figuring out what to build and why — remains stubbornly, essentially human."
@agx@ruhr.social saved the day of everybody doing conf call with GNOME and a rolling distro with recent pipewire https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libgnome-volume-control/-/merge_requests/31 ! Thank you 🙌 It is kind of funny now that a bug can affect both my laptop and my phone 😃
