This is an exciting development. As someone who has supported the desktop use of Linux audio by community radio users I've found it very frustrating at times how things don't work. I remember a decade ago going to a presentation on Linux audio at Ohio Linux fest and the recently I decided to dive in and see what the best solution to coming up with a user friendly and fool proof audio setup (easier said than done). I found that JACK is still too complicated to setup for novices and pulse audio can just be inconsistent. So pipewire seems like it has a lot of potential and I'm excited that people are working on this. It'll perhaps make Linux audio better able to compete with coreAudio and whatever audio subsystem Windows uses. I especially appreciate that the flexibility and modularity allows both professional and consumer applications. The future is bright.
