Hi,

I'm having some audio issues after following your Quickstart Guide.

Everything came up successfully, and I can also start Steam with Moonlight, but the audio is really off. When there is no audio (i.e. before steam big picture starts), I have a constant noise, sort of like an electrical interference or feedback noise, not really sure how to describe it.

When the steam audio comes up, the sound has a lot of weird "artifacts". After the Steam welcome audio is over, the constant noise is back.

Find the container logs attached.

Not sure what I could try here and would appreciate any help. Let me know what other information I could provide.

My system is EndeveaourOS with "6.13.8-zen1-1-zen" kernel, running KDE plasma 6.3.3 with Wayland.

pactl info gives me:

I had my audio settings set to 5.1 from streaming sunshine previously. When i changed it back to Stereo, the problems dissappeared, even if then switching back to 5.1 Audio again.

Closing this.
