I run Mopidy as a service for my mpd because of the nice Spotify integration. I've followed the documentation's instructions to use it with pulseaudio by setting
All of this was working perfectly, however recently I've started using Pipewire as a replacement for PulseAudio on Arch Linux by following this and installing
load-module module-native-protocol-tcp auth-ip-acl=127.0.0.1`
in my /etc/pulse/default.pa
and
[audio]
output = pulsesink server=127.0.0.1
in my /etc/mopidy/modipy.conf
.All of this was working perfectly, however recently I've started using Pipewire as a replacement for PulseAudio on Arch Linux by following this and installing
pipewire
,pipewire-alsa
, pipewire-pulse
and pipewire-media-session
. But now I've noticed that whenever I try to play any music nothing happens. I checked the journalctl for Mopidy and found this
ERROR ... [536:MainThread] mopidy.audio.gst
... mopidy: GStreamer error: Failed to connect: Connection refused
... mopidy: WARNING ... [536:Audio-2] mopidy.audio.actor
... mopidy: Setting GStreamer state to GST_STATE_PLAYING failed
... mopidy: WARNING ... [536:Core-11] mopidy.core.tracklist
... mopidy: Track is not playable: local:track:...
I searched around and found the gst-plugin-pipewire
package, but installing it didn't help at all. Apart from Mopidy, everything else audio-wise is working perfectly. If I could get some help with this I'd be thankful.
