Hi @kubaszym1 – thanks a lot for your response – looking forward to the upcoming version.

As for the current version – I have 8.4.2 on client and server – I also do have pw-cli under ‘/usr/bin/pw-cli’

When it comes to sockets and their creation – the log says:

and while it refers to creating those sockets – there is no audio under /home/user/.nx/D-1002-*/ – there is only cups, disk and printer.

@Bilbotine – thanks! That article is what we started with – I am connecting to a physical session, and I do have pipewire configured and working

[Tromegan]

Any update on this topic? Anything else I can provide to help figuring this out? Something else I should try?

[Tromegan]

I do have pactl:

Sorry, my bad – now sent both – userdir and full set of NX server logs as per documentation.

[Tromegan]

Done – should be there..

[Tromegan]

My server is Gentoo Linux with NoMachine 8.4.2 and my client is Windows 11 and also 8.4.2

My config is like the following:

# grep Audio ../../etc/node.cfg
AudioInterface alsa
EnableAudio 1
# Specify path and name of the command to start PulseAudio server.
CommandStartPulseAudio “”

and attached is the nxserver log I am getting…

[Tromegan]

Hm.. Thanks for the link, but it doesn’t really have anything on how to get pipewire to work.. Maybe I am missing something – it seems to be more focused on “temporary solution for virtual desktop cases” – like what should be set in node.cfg for Pipewire to work? I have “pulseaudio” there – is that right? I have: AudioInterface pulseaudio, EnableAudio 1 and CommandStartPulseAudio “” – is that right?

 

[Tromegan]

Thanks @Britgirl for your response – is there any documentation on how to get it to work? I am connecting to a physical session, and I do have sound locally, but not via NoMachine..
