Is it possible to make audio from both channels come out of the "front left" on pulse audio?

Quills@sh.itjust.works to Linux@lemmy.ml – 34 points –

I hope it's fine to ask this here, I'm using endeavor os with KDE and got some little speakers for my pc, they however only seem to play sound from the "front left" channel, is there a way to make pulse audio send all audio on it? Like, mono mode? I couldn't find anything that does that...

Edit: Found a solution! Like i said before in a comment on this post turned out i was running pipewire-pulse, so i could use pipewire solutions! tried easyeffects and it perfectly fitted my needs, thanks for all the responses everyone!

You can also use Helvum, it's a patchbay native to Pipewire

after some messing around to see how the app works i got it, it's working thank you so much!!

Great! I agree it's a little rough for now, and it seems development is kinda slow, but it works for what it tries to achieve already

Give qpwgraph a try, does the same thing

Oh thanks, didn't know there was a Qt counterpart, it looks pretty good!

yeah
And i just noticed that, it doesn't work like i thought, tried correcting it with the help of a sink it almost worked but as they disappear after a reboot it reverts everything i did, saaaad it was so close of working

Ah that's annoying, so as I understand it should just be down to having persistent sink and routing right? Not sure if this what you want as I haven't tried, but could this thread be helpful?

Yeah i want the sinks and helvum configurations to persist between reboots, this thread does look interesting, will try that later when i get on my pc
