pipewire doesn't work with the i5 11400, 730 HDMI Audio

VicA · 2023-01-17 18:57:14

arch linux, why doesn't pipewire work with the i5 11400, 730 HDMI Audio? If you could set up a test procedure for my hardware that would be great?
Heres my info

aplay -l

Why is device is hw:1,3 busy... I dont understand? Why no audio from this port... its listed as functional... I need an exact answer and test procedures... using Archlinux with kde. * Asus 560, I5-11400 with graphics, 730, 32gb ddr4" Windows 11 works great at 4k 60hz, I really want to get this working out of the box no issues..." THIS SAME CONFIGUration works fine with the Dell Optiplex 3050, I5-6500 530, 16gb ddr4, 4k @30hz, installed on 500gb ssd usb, just went over and plugged in drive usb 3 and reboot uefi to boot off ssd)

Thanks Vic

Busy because you are already - trying - to use it with pipewire presumably. Kill everything using the device

systemctl --user mask pipewire{,-pulse} wireplumber --now
speaker-test -Dhw:1,3 -c2

if it doesn't work even now then you have a kernel issue and need to test a different kernel.

Please use https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode code tags for outputs

That works thank you, now I want to test pipewire, I dont understand any of the pipewire commands if there are any.... I ran qpwgrah and the connections are there in case of brave/youtube and vlc for just music mp3. no HDMI audio going there. I disconnected the AudioBox usb but my usb mike is working fine. All the connections in qpwgragh make sense. The output to the line out works fine and my headphone jack on the computer., The hdmi pipewire is not working. I am testing alsa and pulse and that is working,,, now how can I test pipewire? Also if the connections are there in qpwgraph why no audio output? Could it be the sampling rate causes the issue of no sound HDMI, I dont understand I tested the arch usb 500gb SSD with a dell 3050 HDMI audio works everything works... so this studio computer has the issue.. its confusing to me. Any suggestions?

topcat01 · 2023-01-18 01:58:19

It seems that pulseaudio uses a default sample rate of 44.1 kHz in daemon.conf, while pipewire uses 48.1 kHz in pipewire.conf. I run plain alsa but I'm interested in this issue, so I looked up these default settings. If this is true, then the rate for pipewire can be changed either in the config file (permanent) or (temporarily) using:

pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-rate 44100

Can you in addition post, while pipewire is active and sound "isn't" working

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*

Please use https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode code tags and don't create new posts for every little thing, you can post all of them in one instead of double posting.

From a general pipeline perspective things look correctly. I'd suggest you try whether this might be a wireplumber bug by replacing it with pipewire-media-session (reboot after doing the replacement) and/or checking whether pulseaudio works in place of pipewire.

VicA · 2023-01-22 00:10:47

Yes new to posting ... sorry If I offended anyone... thanks for your input... I gave you what you asked for and feedback? Thank you Vic

VicA · 2023-01-22 00:31:56

Okay... I have two computers a Studio computer where I want to test for music production, ... the other a Dell 3050 purely for testing, ie older hardware... all tests worked fine on the Dell with pulseaudiio, pipewire and wireplumber and then pipewire-media-session. I sent the info you suggested/requested. I dont see any issues now more educated with the output I sent. Thanks for that.
I switched over to pipewire-media-session from wireplumber... no change did a total reinstall with 1. arch and 2. arcolinux separate times... first with pulseaudo, HDMI audio worked fine, then pipewire with pipewire-media-session HDMI audio not working then back to pipewire and wireplumber no HDMI Audio. I did this test 3 separate times with XCFE then plasma X11 and then wayland ...from install, Aroolinus is more flexable with the install different gui options. Archlinux made me learn command line stuff that was cool. Also tested with different kernals all new Zen, Lts and standard and older variations. That's my investigation.... Now I found on git some other testing tools... easyeffects I can change pipewire sample rates, this is of interest... I like this tool also PipeControl.. I will change to the pipewire Git stuff soon.. just trying to understand how the signal path works... if there is a problem with the sessions manager then it makes sense to go that direction, to fix it i dunno, thank you for the info and path... Vic

VicA · 2023-01-22 02:12:19

Double checking hardware... I connected to all 4 HDMI ports, on reboot, on the Sceptre, same issue...tested the monitor on the Dell every port works with pipewire. Took the arch ssd and connected to Asus amd compter all works.
Is this a Kernel issue? Sounds like kernel issue.... who do I contact about this issue?

V1del · 2023-01-22 02:29:22

It is not a kernel issue if pulseaudio and speaker-test without pulseaudio/pipewire work fine. Unless the issue only really happens after a while or so, have you tried running pulseaudio for a while to check whether it's really just up to pipewire? If it's a pipewire issue you should make a report on the pipewire bugtracker, do you see any errors in dmesg related to the hdmi output? e.g.

sudo dmesg | grep -iE 'snd|hdmi'

Also as mentioned if no one but you has posted, please edit your previous posts instead of making a new one.

VicA · 2023-01-22 03:51:02

Can you delete those posts thanks

VicA · 2023-01-22 03:53:03

Its a kernel issue just found out. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/buglist.cgi … h=i5-11400

seth · 2023-01-22 08:40:02

And which of those kernel bugs is related to your problem, you think?
Your BIOS' broken random ACPI fields or the inaccessible thermal sensor of your wireless chip before you bring the NIC up?

Fix your goddamn posts and disable windows fast-start as I already told you in your pointless other thread.
Then V1del and I *might* take another look at your situation.
As long as you don't intend to be cooperative, nobody can help you. With any of your issues.

I put in a Nvidia card and HDMI audio is working fine now... I consider this closed
