Dear all,

 

Now this, is something interesting for an actual screen reader user such as myself and every blind person who uses Fedora.

I’ve heard both good and bad things about pipewire, and I’m really tempted to upgrade to Rawhide and test if the transition from Pulse to Pipewire works with Orca.

For some odd reason I cannot seem to be able to run Fedora in a vm using VMware player, but if anyone who is interested in how accessibility is reads this, please reply, and I’ll surely be a part of the testing, and I’ll thus upgrade my F33 on my production machine accordingly.

And thanks for the brltty group suggestion, Mathew

Best regards.

Francisco

Subject: [Test Day] Fedora 34 Audio 2021-03-03

 

Hey All,

 

PulseAudio deamon has been a default in Fedora for a really long time.

As a part of the Fedora 34 changeset, PipeWire has been set to

default[0] which will route all audio from PulseAudio and JACK to the

PipeWire Audio daemon by default. This is a very crucial change and

will require significant amount of testing. During pandemic, almost

all for us connect via different video meeting platforms which makes

this test day more and more important.

 

As a part of this test day[1], we will have designed a variety of

Audio Test scenarios keeping in mind our general users. The test cases

can be found here[3] and the users can respond with their testing

results in the appropriate column.
