The PipeWire PulseAudio replacement

# SYNOPSIS

pipewire-pulse [options]

# DESCRIPTION

pipewire-pulse starts a PulseAudio-compatible daemon that integrates with the PipeWire media server, by running a pipewire process through a systemd service. This daemon is a drop-in replacement for the PulseAudio daemon.

# OPTIONS

-h | --help
  Show help.

-v | --verbose
  Increase the verbosity by one level. This option may be specified multiple times.

--version
  Show version information.

-c | --config=FILE
  Load the given config file (Default: pipewire-pulse.conf).

# ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

The generic pipewire(1) environment variables are supported.

In addition:

PULSE_RUNTIME_PATH

XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
  Directory where to create the native protocol pulseaudio socket.

PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC
  Extra buffering latency in milliseconds. This controls buffering logic in `libpulse` and may be set for PulseAudio client applications to adjust their buffering. (Setting it on the `pipewire-pulse` server has no effect.)
