I oppose genocide.
I support P.A (Pulse Audio).

@screwlisp @AmenZwa @dougmerritt You can test the high frequency response of your microphone by smashing a fork and a tablespoon together. Or two forks. Or two tablespoons. I don't remember. The more annoying, eardrum-piercing the sound is, the better. It basically has a flat spectrum into ultrasonic.
Then view the Sox spectrogram of the recording and you see if it's rolling off somewhere or going all the way to the end.

When I play video on youtube Firefox is not visible in sound applet → applications. But I can hear sound. When I play Spotify and start playing in Firefox, I have no sound in Firefox. When I play from youtube on Firefox I have no sound in other applications like for example Anki that uses mpv, or SMplayer. When I play on mpv or other I have no sound in Firefox. The same with Chromium. I used to was able to play sound from multiple applications at once, simultaneously and Firefox was visible...
I was trying to listen to an audiobook using VLC. The MP3 files contained a mono track and VLC was playing it through only one headphone.
I found out it was caused by the selected output module. To fix it, I opened Settings → Tools → Preferences → Audio and switched the output module from PipeWire to PulseAudio.
Considered: PulseAudio module-tunnel-source. Load it on the remote, point at the local PA server. Same native protocol, no SSH tunnel.
The cost: the auth cookie travels in the clear. No encryption.
SSH tunnel gives encryption for free. That is not a small thing.
What's Pulseaudio's problem? A2DP works for two days. Today, it's unavailable (again) and my Bluetooth headset only connects with HFP, with no option to switch to A2DP. It's totally random. Re-pairing doesn't help. Killing Pulseaudio doesn't help either. Killing Bluetooth doesn't help either. Restarting my laptop doesn't help either. Will A2DP be available again tomorrow? Maybe. Maybe not. Its availability switches between days. Maybe it's related to the weather? Maybe to political news? This is so annoying! I would be really grateful for any lasting tips to fix this Pulseaudio A2DP headset mess. I don't want HFP. I don't need HFP. I just want to listen to my music. With my Bluetooth headset.
Vorgeschichte:
Seit Mitte 25 bin ich auf Linux unterwegs. Seit Anfang an hatte ich in unregelmäßigen Abständen bei verschiedenen Games Störgeräusche.
Die üblichen Tipps mit #PipeWire #PulseAudio #Wireplumber brachten keine Verbesserung. Ich tat es als „Linux Ding“ ab.
Hauptproblem war, dass die Fehler nicht reproduzierbar waren. Insofern musste man immer ne Weile spielen und hoffen das es weg ist. Was nicht der Fall war.
