To obtain audio the pipewire server will be used with an alsa-pipewire plugin in combination with wireplumber as session manager.
They may be installed with:
# xbps-install -Sy alsa-pipewire pipewire wireplumber
Subsequently copy /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf to /etc/pipewire/.
# cp /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf /etc/pipewire/
/etc/pipewire/pipewire.conf may be configured by inserting:
context.exec = [
{ path = "/usr/bin/wireplumber" args = "" }
{ path = "/usr/bin/pipewire" args = "-c pipewire-pulse.conf"}
]
Then /etc/alsa/conf.d may be created and pipewire configurations may be symlinked:
# ln -s /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/50-pipewire.conf /etc/alsa/conf.d/
# ln -s /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/99-pipewire-default.conf /etc/alsa/conf.d/
Pipewire needs to be started by Wayfire.
[autostart]
audio = pipewire
Audio control
To obtain some control over the audio pavucontrol, pamixer and pa-notify may be installed.
# xbps-install -Sy pavucontrol pamixer pa-notify
Volume control bindings may be set with pamixer in .config/wayfire.ini.
[command]
binding_volumeup = KEY_VOLUMEUP
binding_volumedown = KEY_VOLUMEDOWN
binding_mute = KEY_MUTE
command_volumeup = pamixer -i 5 -u
command_volumedown = pamixer -d 5 -u
command_mute = pamixer -t
To be notified when changing the volume pa-notify may be used. It needs to be started by Wayfire.
[autostart]
audio_notify = sleep 1; pa-notify -t 2
Music control
To control music and other media playerctl may be used.
# xbps-install -Sy playerctl
The bindings may be set in .config/wayfire.ini.
[autostart]
audio_player = playerctld daemon
[command]
binding_playpause = KEY_PLAYPAUSE
binding_next = KEY_NEXTSONG
binding_previous = KEY_PREVIOUSSONG
command_playpause = playerctl play-pause
command_next = playerctl next
command_previous = playerctl previous
