PipeWire: Bluetooth Support Status Update

Pipewire implements the APIs of Pulse, Alsa, and Jack. So instead of having to juggle between them all, you just have one service to manage and it all just works.

It only took a few lines for me to switch and I've never had a Linux audio issue ever since! (And when I have, it's been my fault like my volume was turned down or my speakers were unplugged lol)

How did you switch? I'd be interested in trying this on Ubuntu.

I made the switch this morning by following this: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2022/04/pipewire-replac...

So far the only anecdotes I have are (a) everything seems to be working and (b) don't forget to reboot after installation.

Apparently this is already running on my Ubuntu 21.10, I wonder if they switched over from the default. I've had no problems with BT at all, it just works. I wonder if that's why.
