title: "Breaking changes: Pipewire session manager switch, Pipewire and PulseAudio system service removal" | ||
layout: post | ||
--- | ||
|
||
### Pipewire session manager switch | ||
|
||
Void has now dropped the long-deprecated `pipewire-media-session` session manager | ||
from its `pipewire` package, bringing it inline with the upstream default | ||
configuration. If you are currently using `pipewire`, you must migrate to | ||
`wireplumber` or `pipewire` will cease to function properly. Refer to | ||
[Void documentation](https://docs.voidlinux.org/config/media/pipewire.html#session-management) | ||
if you need guidance when making this change. | ||
|
||
### Pipewire and PulseAudio system service removal | ||
|
||
The oft-confusing services for `pipewire`, `pipewire-pulse`, | ||
`wireplumber`, and `pulseaudio` have been removed from the `pipewire`, | ||
`wireplumber`, and `pulseaudio` packages because they were experimental and | ||
should not have been used for almost all use-cases. | ||
|
||
If you are currently using those services and still wish to do so, replacements | ||
for the `pipewire` and `pulseaudio` services can be found in | ||
`/usr/share/examples/$pkgname/sv/`. Otherwise, it is recommended to migrate to | ||
another method of launching `pipewire`. Refer to | ||
[Void documentation](https://docs.voidlinux.org/config/media/pipewire.html) | ||
if you need guidance. |
