Install Pipewire in Ubuntu 20.04

把裝有 Ubuntu 20.04筆電的 wi-fi 網卡升級到 AX210 後, 藍芽耳機切換到 A2DP codec 後就沒有聲音了 QQ. Google 了一下可能是 Ubuntu default 使用的 Pulseaudio 已經無法支援 AX210 的 BT driver. 只好參考網路的建議, 把 {ulseaudio 改成 Pipewire 試試看.

Replace Pulseaudio with Pipewire

– Add PPA

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipewire-debian/pipewire-upstream
sudo apt update

– Install required package

sudo apt install pipewire libspa-0.2-bluetooth pipewire-audio-client-libraries

– Reload the daemon, disable Pulseaudio, and enable Pipewire

systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user --now disable pulseaudio.service pulseaudio.socket
systemctl --user mask pulseaudio
systemctl --user --now enable pipewire-media-session.service

– Reboot system and check Pipewire is connected
