how to completely deactivate audio in plasma?
Hi there, How can I tell KDE Plasma on Tumbleweed that I do not have want need ANY Audio system? Is it correct that plasma 6 depends on pipewire even on systems without any audio functionality? Background: I am running a (Tumbleweed, daily upated) terminalserver with x2go on a libvirt hetzner machine. I am suffering from log spam from plasmashell (every 5 seconds): " Sep 16 13:12:46 terminalserver.feilner-it.net plasmashell[2185]: kpipewire_logging: error: "Fehler beim Verbinden mit PipeWire" 0 Sep 16 13:12:46 terminalserver.feilner-it.net plasmashell[2185]: received error while creating the stream "Fehler beim Verbinden mit PipeWire" Media monitor will not work. Sep 16 13:12:51 terminalserver.feilner-it.net plasmashell[2185]: kpipewire_logging: error: "Fehler beim Verbinden mit PipeWire" 0 Sep 16 13:12:51 terminalserver.feilner-it.net plasmashell[2185]: received error while creating the stream "Fehler beim Verbinden mit PipeWire" Media monitor will not work. " Here's what I did: * I deactivated sound support in X2go * I removed the virtual audio card in Virt-Manager * I disabled pipewire service with "systemctl --global disable pipewire" * I removed pipewire-pulseaudio and pipewire- None of the above helped to get rid of the error messages. Here's what I can't do: Removing pipewire would remove KDE. This dependency is a bug, isn't it? Can we no longer run KDE without pipewire? I'm not interested in fixing audio, I don't need it. How can I completely disable any Audio functions in KDE Plasma 6? -- Best Regards - Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Markus Feilner, Feilner IT - 20 years of open services - Digital Sustainability, Sovereignty, Sobriety Open Source Strategy, Knowledge Management, Documentation Trainings, Workshops, Coaching, Networking, Politics, Journalism https://www.feilner-it.net, 93059 Regensburg Wöhrdstr. 10, +49 170 302 7092 (+Signal) https://mastodon.cloud/@mfeilner https://mastodon.social/@FeilnerIT PGP: 40A3C306F96133067C11CFD9A958A906268C9F0A http://www.feilner-it.net/files/MFpub.asc Xing: http://www.xing.com/profile/Markus_Feilner LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markusfeilner @mfeilner: Mastodon, Matrix, Jabber, ...
