Description Rodrigo Saboya 2019-09-03 18:18:02 UTC

Latest pulseaudio release lacks proper support for SteelSeries headsets. Fix for these issues are already merged upstream but did not make the 12.2 release.

According to:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1758736

These 3 patches are needed:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/commit/?id=83675b3745c64bd738400eae44eb4daa195ed88a
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/commit/?id=fe6a9a8f59932f29cc77eac2a7e2c6bd07c8c7d0
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/commit/?id=3454c19f3c277d5d0099f17e7ebf5d2005afa4b0

I recently acquired a SteelSeries Arctis 7 and can confirm the 3 commits are enough to make it work properly.

pulseaudio-13.0 was released yesterday, I would then simply bump to it directly to get this and many other fixes

Comment 3 Rodrigo Saboya 2019-09-14 20:49:42 UTC

Yeah, it makes sense.

    media-sound/pulseaudio: bump to 13.0, migrate neon to CPU_ARM_FLAGS
    
    This release removes explicit addition of -ffast-math to CFLAGS, as PA
    needs to deal with negative infinite for volumes, as the volume-test
    failing with -ffast-math demonstrates.
