Audio Issue

Hi
Installed arch recently and am having an issue with audio using wireplumber and pipewire. When I login to my session there is no audio, however it does work after restarting the wireplumber service. I am hoping to skip that extra step and haven't found anything that has fixed it.

Why I run Arch? To "BTW I run Arch" the guy one grade younger.
And to let my siblings and cousins laugh at Arsch Linux...

No it's not. It is one random page you copied out of the pager.

journalctl -b | curl -F file=@- 0x0.st

This will upload the journal to 0x0.st and hand your a url to share.

Re: Audio Issue

yeah that's not entirely what is being asked for, you are reproducing the first mistake you made. look closely at the command provided; it has a pipe, methinks you are getting confused and only using the first part

This is the output of the journal

No it's not. It is one random page you copied out of the pager.

so it changes from EIO to EBUSY

Does it help to add snd-soc-rt1316-sdw to the MODULES ?
Edit: in your mkinitcpio.conf and then regenerate the initramfs
