Personally, on Arch Linux, I installed pipewire, pipewire-pulse and pipewire-alsa, and pipewire-jack on the default configuration with wireplumber. This should redirect anything that uses any of these audio systems to use pipewire. I also use easyeffects + support packages for an equalizer. Seems sane so far aside from 100% mic being 33% on KDE's audio applet

Cool to see someone else also using easy effects! I too have some minor issues regarding volume but aside form that it's a pretty cool tool.
I use Music on Console. Excellent cli based player. Plays everything.
As for pipe wire, can't be of help. I would ask on the Linux sub
Thanks! I'll make sure to check out the player!
Fedora and openSUSE Tumbleweed both use PipeWire by default.
I use Strawberry; it supports every format I could need, supports gapless playback from GStreamer (so no MPD mucking required), and—best by far—Subsonic support. Even gapless playback works in Subsonic!
Strawberry will always have my vote on Linux unless someone builds something in GTK that matches it for features. But I have yet to see anything come close.
That sounds super interesting! Thanks for this, I'll be sure to check both strawberry and nextcloud out!
## Properties for the DSP configuration.
default.clock.rate = 96000
default.clock.allowed-rates = [ 44100 96000 ]
default.clock.quantum = 2048
default.clock.min-quantum = 32
default.clock.max-quantum = 8192
default.clock.quantum-limit = 8192
and the pipewire-pulse resample quality is set to 10
Running 0.3.79 and its been stable, 0 audio glitches unlike pulseaudio sometimes has
Thank you for this configuration! I was a bit unsure on what to put these values to so it's nice seeing what others have done!

I used to use only ALSA. Swiched to pulseaudio with alsa but avoiding resampling. I dont think that complicating stuff add any benefits... latency maybe and more processing for the audio. Let the dac/amp do the work
