Hi,

I'm trying to use my 7.1 surround system on Arch Linux PC with pipewire. Currently 1 DP connected to the main monitor and 1 HDMI connected to the 7.1 sound system. Sound system has 4 HDMI IN and 1 HDMI OUT to the TV. First issue is without activating second monitor I can't output any sound. Second issue is sound is always 2 channel. There are no other options on pavucontrol app. What i'm trying to achieve is

1. Using only main monitor and outputting sound through HDMI to sound system

~~2. Outputting both video and sound through HDMI, which is working but only on 2 channels.~~

Thanks in advance

EDIT:

silly me, I changed HDMI cable and it detected all possible audio outputs including PCM 7.1

Hi,

All I want is a notebook with amd cpu, no dgpu, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd and most importantly 120-144hz display. Am i out of luck or my search skills are just bad

Is this possible in boost? I couldn't find it on settings

I can see launcher and hit play but then nothing happens, It just stays on launcher. I tried --skip-launcher option and other Proton versions but none of them have worked. I'm on amd gpu and Proton-GE sometimes throws and error of "failed to collect displays" message, any idea?

SOLVED:

apparently sway was the problem and fixed it with below startup command

echo env --unset=SDL_VIDEODRIVER mangohud "%command%

Hi,

Today me and other 5 Ubuntu users with similar setup had an issue with brave. It glitches with rendering, completely missing fonts and some ui elements. brave-browser --disable-gpu fixes it.

Anybody else have the issue and possibly a fix without disabling hardware acceleration?

1.52.130 Chromium: 114.0.5735.198 (Official Build) (64-bit)

EDIT:

For future reference here is the fix. I think it's related to new MESA update

rm -rf ~/.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/GPUCache and restart brave
