Pipewire setup nightmare and device not recognized

I used AV Linux for several years and only moved temporarily to Ubuntu Studio after the previous release. At that time, my hardware was brand new and I began encountering graphics-related issues along with audio glitches. The audio instability persisted even after transitioning to Ubuntu Studio, although the graphics issues did not.

Since then, the system has received multiple BIOS updates. In retrospect, I believe the original problems were most likely related to early firmware/BIOS maturity rather than AV Linux itself.

Ubuntu Studio was always intended as a temporary solution. My plan has been to return to AV Linux, as I genuinely miss its efficiency and the level of optimization it provides out of the box — qualities that are difficult to replicate elsewhere.

I am now preparing to move back and expect the experience to be considerably smoother with the updated firmware.

Let’s see how it goes :slightly_smiling_face:

That’s totally fair haha! It’s just that it feels like with Arch, you’re really supposed to know what you’re doing (which is not a bad thing!). Similarly to you, I’ve had far fewer problems with Debian sid than I had with Ubuntu, which is honestly hilarious to me.
