Fedora 35 with KDE.
HW: Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Gen6 and sound card Audiotrak ProDigy CUBE.
Sound card is connected directly to USB port on laptop without any USB hubs.

When I try to use sound card output and mic input in some app simultaneously the app freezes and errors in dmesg appear:

[Dec 6 16:33] usb 1-1: Not enough bandwidth for new device state.

With pulseaudio everything is working fine.

Issue is present since F34.

Are you testing on USB3?

Port is USB3, but cable and sound card itself is USB2.

I Guess at least the cable should be USB3 too. Your error-message says not enough bandwidth for new device state

Device is USB2, i don’t see how USB3 cable will help (and it will not fit port).
This issue is only present when using pipewire.
With pulseaudio everything works OK.

Hi, maybe you could try to decrease the sample rate. Please refer to pipewire configuration here.
