No sound via pulseaudio from upgraded debian-12 VMs #8816

Closed 3hhh closed 3 months ago

3hhh commented 8 months ago

How to file a helpful issue

Qubes OS release

4.2

Brief summary

All debian-12 VMs upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2 won't have any sound via pulseaudio.

Possibly upgrading is irrelevant and just all debian-12 VMs have no sound via pulseaudio.

debian-11 VMs work just fine.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install debian-12 stock templates on 4.1
  2. Upgrade
  3. Remove pipewire et al from the template
  4. Install pulseaudio (or rather keep it as per #8805)

Expected behavior

Sound

Actual behavior

No sound

Related issues

Originally I investigated this as follow-up on #8805, but I believe this is a separate bug.

3hhh commented 8 months ago

To fix this, I had a closer look at the differences between the working debian-11 VMs and the debian-12 VMs:

In debian-11 pulseaudio was started via /etc/xdg/autostart/qubes-pulseaudio.desktop, which calls start-pulseaudio-with-vchan, which in turn runs pulseaudio --start -n --file=/etc/pulse/qubes-default.pa --exit-idle-time=-1. In debian-12 start-pulseaudio-with-vchan is not installed and therefore the user part of systemd starts the default debian-12 pulseaudio as pulseaudio --daemonize=no --log-target=journal.

I reverted debian-12 to the old debian-11 behaviour by copying the start-pulseaudio-with-vchan binary and masking the systemd pulseaudio unit.

This made the following journal entry pop up:

Jan 01 12:02:35 debian-12 pulseaudio[1090]: Failed to open module module-vchan-sink.so: module-vchan-sink.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Jan 01 12:02:35 debian-12 pulseaudio[1090]: Failed to open module "module-vchan-sink".
Jan 01 12:02:35 debian-12 pulseaudio[1090]: module-rescue-stream is obsolete and should no longer be loaded. Please remove it from your configuration.

A quick locate module-vchan indicates that indeed the vchan module isn't installed in debian-12, whereas it is installed in debian-11 even though the package pulseaudio-qubes is installed in both VMs. debian-11 has libvchan-xen installed, debian-12 libvchan-xen1, which is a bit odd.

@marmarek @DemiMarie Any ideas?

Can you show output of dpkg -l | grep qubes from that template?

rc pulseaudio-qubes 4.1.32-1+deb12u1 amd64 Audio support for Qubes VM

So, pulseaudio-qubes actually is not installed. For pulseaudio to work you need to install it.

Argh. You're right - I had missed that rc in front...

Apparently it was removed during the 4.2 upgrade:

No containers need to be restarted.

No user sessions are running outdated binaries.

No VM guests are running outdated hypervisor (qemu) binaries on this host.

I'll see whether I can set them to manually installed as a workaround...

And yes, audio now works. Thanks for the support!

I'll leave this open for the aforementioned packaging conflict.

After the recent successful dom0 switch to pipewire I tested pipewire in my debian12 VMs and can confirm that it works by now as well. Thanks!
