Description

Manages PipeWire session policy, deciding how audio and video nodes, devices, permissions, and routing should behave. It is a core part of many modern Linux desktop audio setups.

This is a background system component, not a mixer app. Users normally receive it as part of the audio stack, and broken configuration can affect speakers, microphones, Bluetooth audio, screen capture, or application audio routing.
