#[Linux] [Boss 3 spoiler] If pipewire is restarted, boss 3 freezes and the music stops playing

I had just found out how to have mono audio since the left earphone doesn't work, so I restarted pipewire with commands to apply the change and not restart the pc, to which I had the game open, without sound since I was listening to music and by chance I happened to go to boss 3, to which I saw it didn't work.

the commands I used were:

systemctl --user restart pipewire.socket                                                                     
systemctl --user restart pipewire-pulse.socket
systemctl --user restart pipewire.service
systemctl --user restart pipewire-pulse.service

note: the video has no sound because I used a program that only captures the video because it makes me lazy to configure obs

i might need to see if there's a way to replicate on windows to see if i can figure out what breaks, otherwise, i don't know how the devs will fix this

Blame systemctl

ok, I went to windows and I could reproduce it, although while in linux it is restarting the services and it doesn't detect them at startup, in windows the boss 3 is frozen if you stop the audio service with net stop audiosrv, if you start it again the music is restored and the boss works again

i thought it might be something like that, the game needs the music to run the rhythm boss obviously

Tbh, idk if this is really within the scope of the games bugs, as it does require ending a service to actually experience it no? 🤣
