Hello,

I=E2=80=99m having s=
ome issues getting a unified audio setup using PipeWire only, i=2Ee=2E, Pip=
eWire alongwith ALSA to route all audio using PulseAudio and JACK emulation=
=2E I had such a setup previously on the Arch GNU/Linux distribution, but I=
 have been struggling since I switched to GNU Guix=2E

I want first o=
f all the applications to be handled through PipeWire=E2=80=99s PulseAudio =
emulation, such as audio to browser, telegram-desktop etc=2E I used to have=
 a PipeWire configuration with sources and sinks for each of the major appl=
ications, which was then routed using JACK emulation of PipeWire through th=
e help of a patchbay/JACK client such as Carla or qpwgraph/patchage=2E
<=
br>I have gone with the barebones configuration of PipeWire that I can find=
 for Guix, to that end, my system configuration includes the following serv=
ices:

#+begin_src guile
(services
       (append (list

=
       (service pam-limits-service-type
                (list
       =
               (pam-limits-entry "@realtime" 'both 'rtprio 99)
         =
             (pam-limits-entry "@realtime" 'both 'memlock 'unlimited)))))                      (modify-services %desktop-services
		           =
            (alsa-service-type config =3D>
		                        =
                  (alsa-configuration
		                                =
          (pulseaudio? #f)))))
#+end_src

So I=E2=80=99ve got the =
realtime configuration declared here, and I also have:

#+begin_src g=
uile
(groups (cons*
	  (user-group
	    (name "realtime")
	    =
(system? #t))
	  %base-groups))
#+end_src

and then realtime is=
 added to `supplementary-groups` in `user-account`=2E

And, similarly=
 I=E2=80=99ve added the following in my home configuration=E2=80=99s servic=
es:

#+begin_src guile
(services (append (list
                =
  (service home-pipewire-service-type
		      (home-pipewire-configurati=
on
		       (wireplumber wireplumber)
		       (enable-pulseaudio? #t=
))))))
#+end_src

After this configuration, I can run JACK through=
 jackd, even though I don=E2=80=99t have jack installed in system or home c=
onfiguration=2E Does it get installed through some other package=E2=80=99s =
dependency?

Furthermore, when I try to use a JACK client through `pw=
-jack' it doesn=E2=80=99t work=2E For example, running `pw-jack qjackctl' a=
nd starting JACK through it gives the following error in qjackctl=E2=80=99s=
 messages:

13:13:37=2E600 JACK is starting=2E=2E=2E

not connect to JACK server as client=2E - Overall operation failed=2E - Una=
ble to initialize client=2E Please check the messages window for more info=

When I try `pw-jack carla' as well, the same thing happens, it s=
ays libjack=2Eso=2E0 is loaded successfully but when I start Carla=E2=80=99=
s engine, it says: =E2=80=9CFailed to create new JACK client=2E=E2=80=9D
Now, I don=E2=80=99t know what=E2=80=99s going wrong where, but I want=
 to JACK with PipeWire, unless one can recommend me good reasons to use JAC=
K externally alongside PipeWire=2E Also, even PipeWire=E2=80=99s pulseaudio=
 seems finicky, sometimes works sometimes doesn=E2=80=99t=2E Sometimes appl=
ications like browser (librewolf, ungoogled-chromium) can=E2=80=99t access =
microphone or speaker (while permissions are fine), at other times, messing=
 around with pavucontrol makes it work=2E I am not sure what exactly is mak=
ing it work and what is failing, any suggestions for how to conduct some de=
bugging would be of help=2E I need a consistently functioning system of pip=
ewire emulating pulseaudio for applications and jack for routing, that does=
n=E2=80=99t fail=2E

Also, how can I configure my ALSA device cards, =
and have it reproduce gain? Ipreviously used to have an ~/=2Econfig/asound=
=2Estate that is stored and restored using alsactl=2E Doing that doesn=E2=

I=E2=80=99ve attached my system=
