It's fine when it works. It's a monstrosity when it doesn't.
I spent an hour the other day trying to figure out how to tell it not to output audio through my DualSense controller haptics (which look like a four-channel audio output) when I connect it to an Intel NUC over USB. I never did succeed, and all the posts I found were basically other people asking how to do similar things.
- snvzz 4y agoI used pavucontrol to simply tell it to not do it. Once is enough. In the sound cards list, just set to disabled.
- emilyst 4y agoYou can't use `pavucontrol` unless you're logged in to a graphical interface as the user who is producing the sound. For a headless system, it's useless.
- kam 4y ago`pactl` is the command line version
- snvzz 4y ago>For a headless system, it's useless. DualSense is a game controller. In this context, headless is unlikely.
- emilyst 4y agoDepends on how you define headless, but the fact is, I'm rarely logged into it, and there's no mouse nor keyboard connected, nor any X server running.
- taifleh 4y agoyou can actually use pavucontrol for remote PA servers that have native-protocol-tcp running $ PULSE_SERVER=192.168.1.21 pavucontrol
