Pipewire and redirecting music to Google Meet.

Hi!
I'm running an up to date Arch Linux laptop with KDE.
Recently, I decided to try Pipewire-pulse following instruction in the wiki.  Everything seemed to work at first.
As i'm a teacher and have to use Google Meet to teach online, i sometimes need to stream some music from local files to my students using Google Meet. 
While doing that, i simply use Pavucontrol and while being on recording tab, i switch from "built-in audio analog stereo" to "monitor of built-in audio analog stereo" and my students hear what i hear in my headphone.

Using Pipewire-pulse, i'm not able to do that.  There's a monitor option in recording tab in Pavucontrol, but it's unselectable.

I revert back to Pulseaudio, but am tempting to find the solution.

Am I missing something here?

Thanks!

Re: Pipewire and redirecting music to Google Meet.

Hi!

I have the same issue, I cannot redirect any recording app to a "monitor" interface in pavucontrol since I switched to pipewire.
I guess I have to revert back to pulseaudio for now.
I would be interested to know about a fix.

Thanks !

Try using catia (https://kx.studio/Applications:Catia) , it allow you to control the audio in pipewire as it was jack, and so redirect the software output to the monitor or input

As previously mentioned catia and helvum work. qjackctl is what I use since I previously used it for jack

This thread was started in janurary. Since then the monitor recording bug should have been fixed: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire … 1fab38ad6e
