That's cause you're using a distro like mint which is using older builds of stuff.

Get yourself a most recent plasma 6 Wayland setup with pipewire for audio. It even has rdp server now.

What's most likely happening is your user space app wants the newer API but you're running old builds from two years ago.

It will continue to degrade for you unless you fully switch to a Wayland DM.

Anything built on X11 is basically deprecated now and no one is building on it anymore.

The context here is that I was commenting on the parent's assertion that one "can just use a pre-configured system like Mint Cinnamon and never know about any of these things." Nope!

That's my impression as well, and again, with the 2nd most popular Linux distro using X11 by default and with "experimental" Wayland support, that only reinforces my rebuttal of parent's claim.
