1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

    How did you solve the audio issue with element for Linux?

    [–] ekky@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

    Element has audio issues on Linux? Didn't notice it when I tested whether Matrix had what I needed (a month past). I'll see if it screws up if I try again now.

    Audio doesn’t seem to stream over Element regardless of operating system, I’m on Debian 12 and my buddies are on Windows, neither stream audio.

    Also Mobile devices lack streaming out-right.

    That's weird. I just tested it with a friend (I'm on Endeavour, she's on Win11, the server is VPS with Debian running the newest Synapse and Element-web). Audio works fine both ways with no mic config required, streaming is a little laggy when viewing the screen and stream next to each other, but that's all.

    EDIT: No, you're right. Audio within streams seem to fail. I remember Discord having the same problem (hence why I use Vesktop), but if Windows also suffers this shortcoming? I'm pretty sure I remember it working a month ago, so there should be a bug report in Synapse (or element).

    This has been an issue for over 4 years. not sure why it seems to be neglected by the maintainers/contributors.

    Edit: Maybe it was patched? I don’t have the time at the moment to dive deep into this topic, will try to get back to this later today.

    Edit 2: briefly looking around seems like this persisted in 2023
