No audio via integrated speaker on Ubuntu 24.04.3

So, #AppImage is independent from your #Linux distro, it always works.

Except for… audio.

Because AppImage programs are statically linked, so they contain all libraries they need. And if they contain an old audio library using ALSA directly, they do not work with #Pipewire apparently.

Because the trick of Pipewire is to replace both #Jack and #ALSA libraries by compatible versions that then access Pipewire, not Jack or ALSA. But if the libraries are inside the program, this does not happen.

Pipewire now is the standard audio system on many distros.

Sad situation that is apparently the cause for me not being able to use #OpenSoundMeter.

Tickets have been filed on GitHub.

I could now try to compile Open Sound Meter myself. I thought I was over this. 🤪

i finally got around to enabling 4ch mode on my motherboard sound card and attaching that extra pair of speakers for REAR left and REAR right. mwahaha!! some utilities I needed include: alsa-utils alsa-tools. this script was useful too. https://github.com/hello2himel/linux-audio-fix

I had just fixed an old pair of Altec Lansing ACS91 speakers and thought that I could use them as Rear speakers and what do you know, they actually sound really nice.

#Linux のグラフィックとサウンド、どちらもカーネルとその外輪ではなく #UNIX 系の準標準プログラムで構築されているから、理解しづらい点があると考えている (GUIは #X11 サーバや #Wayland コンポジタで実装され、サウンドはPulse Audioを経由して #ALSA である)
