Waybar wireplumber module is still unstable and is not yet that feature rich as pulseaudio module. Since pipewire can act as a pulseaudio server, media-sound/pulseaudio[daemon] dependency for building pulseaudio module is excessive. I suggest something like: pulseaudio? ( || ( media-sound/pulseaudio[daemon] ( media-video/pipewire[sound-server] media-sound/pulseaudio ) ) ) Reproducible: Always
This has affected me too. I am running a pipewire system, but I use the pulseaudio module in my Waybar config as the module is more mature and works better. Unfortunately the new Waybar ebuild has this hard dependency on the pulseaudio daemon if you enable the use flag, which conflicts with my pipewire system, so I'm forced to use the wireplumber module instead, which is a bit buggy right now.
