I switched to PipeWire few months back on Manjaro and apart from a problem with packages when switching, there is one issue which bothers me slightly - Bluetooth headphones delay. I tried all codecs on my QC35-II, 3 different BT 4 and 5 dongles and the delay is unbearable, rougly 500ms, kills CS:GO experience. On a headphone jack PipeWire is great, audio is clean without any glitches. Just this bluetooth...
- skrtskrt 5y agoNo delay on Fedora 35 with all defaults
- aftbit 5y agoI've also experienced this on Arch Linux, in the form of a variable delay to my bluetooth speaker under pipewire but not pulseaudio. I also noticed a lot more general bluetooth flakiness. I have not characterized the issue nearly as thoroughly as you have. Instead I ran a wire to the other side of my office and installed some DIY speakers, which rendered the problem moot. Regardless, I've always had issues getting bluetooth to work reliably, especially on linux.
