- Is Pulseaudio still required (ignoring what particular DE apps may require, e.g. Firefox and Plasma)? Can it not yet be entirely dispensed with in favor of Pipewire? If not, is there a Debian-specific forum I can participate in to help get it to that point?
- The "could not connect" and "host is down" errors seem to be a Debian exclusive. IOW, these two errors happen as a matter of course with multiple PCs here using Bookworm and Trixie, but equivalent configurations on same PCs running Mageia, Fedora and/or openSUSE produce considerable expected output. What's not happening to cause these routine failures in Debian?
