[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#1007949: pipewire-pulse: any relationship to pulseaudio-utils?

[Patrice Duroux]

Package: pipewire-pulse
Version: 0.3.48-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I am observing the following log message on my system:

pipewire-pulse[2107]: pw.conf: execvp error 'pactl': No such file or directory

and I found the following which is not clear regarding the mention of
'pw.conf':

$ grep "pactl" /usr/share/pipewire/*
/usr/share/pipewire/pipewire-pulse.conf:    { path = "pactl"        args =
"load-module module-always-sink" }
/usr/share/pipewire/pipewire-pulse.conf:    #{ path = "pactl"        args =
"load-module module-switch-on-connect" }


Thanks,
Patrice
