[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#998167: pipewire-pulse: No sound devices detected when using dbus-x11 instead of dbus-user-session

[Alexander Kernozhitsky]

Package: pipewire-pulse
Version: 0.3.39-3
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: sh200105 at mail.ru

Hello,

I am using KDE Plasma 5.23. I have installed pipewire-pulse package recently.
After reboot, Plasma showed me that no sound devices were detected and the
programs were unable to play or record sounds. Running `systemctl --user status
pipewire-pulse` showed the following error message:

pipewire-pulse[2780]: spa.dbus: Failed to connect to session bus: Unable to
autolaunch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for X11

After I removed dbus-x11, installed dbus-user-session and rebooted the
computer, the sound devices were detected and everything started to work fine.
