<description>Introduction: The Problem The growing complexity and size of modern software is a significant issue, which I have discussed previously here.&#xA;Today, software tends to be bloated, with enormous and complex codebases that can consist of tens of millions of lines of code and intricate dependency trees, often just to perform simple tasks.&#xA;It wasn&amp;rsquo;t always like this. In the past, when computers had limited processing power, developers had less freedom and were compelled to solve problems in more efficient ways.</description>

<h1 id="linux-audio-guide">Linux Audio Guide</h1>
<p>Compared to other OSes, Linux can leave much to be desired when it comes to
audio quality, because most of the time Linux just uses generic open-source
drivers to handle audio, which may not be optimized for every device. However
with a few tweaks, it is possible to significantly improve the sound quality.</p>
<h2 id="pipewire-vs-pulseaudio">PipeWire vs PulseAudio</h2>
<p>PipeWire aims to replace both PulseAudio and JACK by
providing a unified solution for audio and video handling.</p>
<p>It provides a handful of benefits such as:</p>
<ol>
<li>Low-latency audio</li>
<li>Modular architecture</li>
<li>JACK compatibility</li>
<li>Simplified setup</li>
<li>Bluetooth audio support</li>
</ol>
<p>Therefore, if you want the best possible experience, remove PulseAudio and
install PipeWire.</p>
<h2 id="pipewire-prerequisites">PipeWire prerequisites</h2>
<p>PipeWire requires two things to work properly:</p>
<ol>
<li>D-Bus user session bus</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>for inter-process communication and session management</li>
</ul>
<ol start="2">
<li>XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variable</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li>for creating a runtime directory to store temporary files and session-specific data</li>
</ul>
<p>If your DE/WM/Wayland compositor is not configured to provide this, you have to
run a dbus session alongside it.</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre tabindex="0" style="color:#f8f8f2;background-color:#272822;-moz-tab-size:4;-o-tab-size:4;tab-size:4;"><code class="language-fallback" data-lang="fallback"><span style="display:flex;"><span># .xinitrc
</span></span><span style="display:flex;"><span>exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session spectrwm
</span></span></code></pre></div><p>To automatically set <code>XDG_RUNTIME_DIR</code> install <code>(e)logind</code> (already comes with
systemd distros) or <code>turnstile</code>. If not using (e)logind, user must be in <code>audio</code>
and <code>video</code> group.</p>
<p>For more info on turnstile:</p>

<h2 id="pipewire-setup">PipeWire setup</h2>
<p>Install <code>pipewire</code> and a PipeWire session manager <code>wireplumber</code>.</p>
