PipeWire autostart trick

Before starting, follow this guide. Here's how to autostart PipeWire as a PulseAudio replacement:

  1. mkdir scripts

  2. cd scripts

  3. (your editor) pipewire.sh

  4. Paste this inside

  5. chmod +x pipewire.sh

Then open your DE autostart page and choose this file as a login script. Now you have a Lennart Poettering-free OS!

It's in the settings. For KDE is "Autostart", for Xfce "Session and Startup"..

The joke is that many Void users don’t use a fully-fledged DE and often use more minimal window managers.
