Google meet and zoom are not able to detect microphone on chromium. It woks on firefox though. Any ideas?
on the same site? I can’t reproduce. works both in chromium and firefox in a kde plasma session
I am also experiencing this issue. The device is detected in Signal Messenger but there is no audio.
It could be gnome specific.
Right, I’m seeing the same behavior, chromium detects the device, but there’s no audio. I tested it on zoom by recording a sample, and the playback was just static noise.
I’m using Hyprland so it’s probably not Gnome specific.
I stumbled across this today - it also happens with the Gnome Sound Recorder. I also note (though this might be unrelated) that the Camera app that ships with Fedora 42 shows solid green, while I can see the camera working just fine in Firefox and Chromium. So it seems that Firefox is now our window to the world
This is possibly a Fedora 42 bug (I note that the red microphone in the top-right is permanently on, and has been since I installed Fedora Asahi Remix today), so I’ll go test this tomorrow with Fedora 41 on my Macbook, and with Fedora 42 on an x86 device, so I can rule those out.
My device is a Macbook Air M1, and the microphone and speakers report as J313, if those details are relevant.
The permanently shown microphone indicator is a side effect of the DSP pipeline. This is either a bug in pipewire/wireplumber or our DSP pipeline config. I guess we should file a bug for this.
There seems to be issue with pipewire-pulse or PulseAudio clients like GNOME Sound Recorder. Starting a recording in Sound Recorder even breaks running recording in audacity using pipewire-alsa. The same happens with pavucontrol and I think the gnome audio settings / controls use pulse as well.
Weird that you’re reporting it works fine with chromium on KDE, huh. Different builds maybe?
Gnome sound settings work fine unless I open a “broken” app and try to use the mic, where the little sound pill stops responding to the funny noises I’m using to test the microphone.
