Sound issues with Non-Flatpak install and Pipewire on Arch



This is for the binary version. Not the Flatpak.

Whenever I run Kodi, I get the following error: ‘this->recurse > 0’ failed at ../pipewire/src/pipewire/thread-loop.c:63 do_unlock()

The sound is choppy and sometimes cuts out completely. This happens when using the laptop’s sound card, wired headphones, Bluetooth headphones no matter the codec used, in X11, and in Wayland. This issue happens when Kodi tries to use Pipwire by default. I was able to run Kodi without sound issues by using the –audio-backend=pulseaudio option.

Kodi Build: 21.0
Git: 2404-nogitfound
Installed from the Arch Repositories
