Issues I have using Solus (Brightness and Audio)

Axios Not that I can tell

RandomMan25XX If you play content from net to computer speakers it works ok?

I noticed that unit uses realtek which is usually supported real well by everybody nowdays.
curious you would have problems.
(jump or just drop for a period of time before coming back) is different issue than sounding crappy.
what realtek card do you have?
You had this problem with windows to?

Solus uses Pipewire by default (which most distros have also switched to). I'm not aware of any outstanding issues that affect Solus specifically on this, but there's a decent guide on clipping troubleshooting available here that might help.

RandomMan25XX

ReillyBrogan It's not really clipping as much as it does kinda jump or just drop for a period of time before coming back, and from further extensive testing it seems to be an issue exclusive to bluetooth audio, something of which I've only experienced with Solus and nothing else
(To add on to this, anything that could possibly cause interference usually didn't with other distros I've used as well as Windows 11 when I was still using that before it decided it didn't want to work anymore for whatever reason)

RandomMan25XX At the risk of telling you to suck eggs, wiring and cables, including caddy drives, usb cables, and other electrical inter-connectors will shield bluetooth quite efficiently so a minor change on your installation can make all the difference. Depending on where the bluetooth device is on your PC a change in it's orientation can make the PC shield its own bluetooth connection.

And no, I didn't have this problem in windows or any other Linux distro I've previously used

RandomMan25XX

BuzzPCSOS As I have stated, things were perfectly functional under other Linux distros I've used, as well as Windows 11 (which is what the computer originally came with), every solution I've tried so far that might help hasn't, and finding a way to modify Bluetooth settings has lead nowhere as I have no idea what to change in hopes of changing the channel it operates on or any other possible solutions I could think of

RandomMan25XX I was just checking early post sounded like you did was just clarifying
Last bluetooth issue I got into on forums I about went on 6 month drunk afterwards with it not being
resolved (Until dev changed some stuff)
I was just seeing if it could have been something simple. (Thats about as far as I go with bluetooth anymore to
problamatic and hard to fix in forums)
Sorry I could not be of more help.

(Note: Only bluetooth stuff that seems to work across the board with linux and windows are the intel boards
for some reason)
Just info

I'm guessing by now, but could it be power-saving? I have seen something like your device (wifi adapter) is in power-save mode, so without sufficient power it gets into sleep-mode or something like that. Can some one verify that is the case here?

[I'm no telling to do it, at this moment. it may or may not be the case here]

RandomMan25XX

I've admittedly caved and switched distros again for more than just the bluetooth issue, but also gcdemu not working and the inability to use devkitpro for compiling homebrew code among other things, not sure how to close this thread

Axios

Sounds like with that hardware it does not play nice with Linux and sticking with windows
may be only choice If stuff you need to use dont work some hardware is just angry.
Just an observation.

Axios Solus Linux is the only distro I've had this issue with, none of the others I've used before have ever had this issue
