PipeWire default

This test case tests that PipeWire is installed and running in the default installation.

Setup

  1. This test case can be performed on bare machines.
  2. The computer must be equipped with a sound device.
  3. Install a desktop version of Fedora 34 (or later).
  4. Boot the system and log in as a regular user.

How to test

  1. Check that PipeWire systemd service is active.

    $ systemctl --user status pipewire

  2. Check that PipeWire PulseAudio systemd service is active.

    $ systemctl --user status pipewire-pulse

  3. Check that PipeWire is working and that basic information about the PipeWire sessions can be obtained.

    $ pw-dump 0

  4. Check that the PipeWire PulseAudio sound server is working and basic information about its status can be obtained:

    $ pactl info

    especially check that the server name is PulseAudio (on PipeWire <version_number>).

  5. List all audio and video device known to the system and check that your devices are listed in the output.

    $ pactl list

Expected results

  1. The required services must be installed and running by default without any user interaction.
  2. The pw-dump command works and shows basic info.
  3. The pactl command works and shows information and settings about the currently running session.
