Fell<p>I learnt something important about Linux audio last night.</p><p>I noticed that I had no sound in X-Plane 12 (a flight simulator) while also being in a Discord call in Firefox. Apparently, certain FMOD applications check if PulseAudio is installed and fall back to ALSA if it isn't. Now, I have PipeWire installed to fix the mess that is Linux audio once and for all. So TECHNICALLY PulseAudio is not installed. And that's exactly what X-Plane detected, which then tried to gain complete control over the sound hardware through ALSA, which it couldn't.</p><p>The "fix" was to symlink `/bin/pulseaudio` to `/bin/true` to make it look like PulseAudio is available which tricked X-Plane into going through PulseAudio (and therefore through PipeWire) instead.</p><p>That was one of the weirdest problems I've ever encountered.</p><p><a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/audio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>audio</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/xplane" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xplane</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/xplane12" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xplane12</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/discord" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>discord</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>firefox</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/alsa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>alsa</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/pulseaudio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pulseaudio</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/pipewire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pipewire</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/fmod" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fmod</span></a> <a href="https://ma.fellr.net/tags/flightsim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flightsim</span></a></p>
