Linux audio issues were common during the transition to PulseAudio, but that was almost 20 years ago now.

And they continued until the transition to Pipewire.

I’ve been using Linux as my main operating system since 2010 and can’t recall having any audio issues. My desktop has 5 sound cards and they all work fine. I don’t use bluethooth for audio, so I guess that makes things easier.

I guess you’ve just been lucky.

Or you’ve just been unlucky.
