Azure runs almost entirely on Linux. MS has no need to be afraid of it.

The world order that created America’s prosperity was ultra violence and super imperialism resulting in the deaths, abject suffering, and domination of hundreds of millions around the globe for a century.

Hellz f’ing yes, fellow penguin!! So glad I could help!

It is. I run mint 22.1 as well. The Mint team ended up with a pipewire version that was mostly contemporary but a Wireplumber version that was legacy. It made configuration a nightmare. Once I upgraded Wireplumber, I was able to actually configure it and all my problems went away

I think that installing pulseaudio + pipewire will be problematic, at least that’s what I’ve read. I recommend uninstalling pulseaudio, getting the PPA version of Wireplumber and reporting back with your outcomes. Make sure pipewire-pulse is installed

Mint 22 is on pipewire now. You need to get rid of pulseaudio, go with pipewire and the pipewire-pulse compat layer. I had major problems until I installed an upgraded Wireplumber to 0.5 from ppa:pipewire-debian/pipewire-upstream

After that, you may have further issues with your configuration, and I would start by looking at your syslog for errors indicating what might be happening.
