Package: wireplumber
Version: 0.4.13-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Upgrading to debian 12.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Followed the instructions in the release notes.
* What was the outcome of this action?
On rebooting, a process called wireplumber consumes most of the cpu.
Sound does work. If I kill the process, cpu usage falls, my fan stops
spinning and I no longer have sound. I have to kill wireplumber on
each reboot (or let it try to fry my cpu).
Please let me know if I can provide more information.

In case it helps anyone else, this has so far fixed the problem
introduced by wireplumber:
# apt-get purge wireplumber
# apt-get autoremove --purge
Then I killed and restarted pulseaudio.

Do you have pipewire-libcamera installed? If yes, can you remove it?

Can you provide log from pipewire and wireplumber as explained here [1]?
Best regards,

"pipewire-libcamera" doesn't appear anywhere under /var/log/apt so I

think it's never been installed.

$ journalctl --user-unit=pipewire --user-unit=wireplumber \
--user-unit=pipewire-pulse --since="2023-07-29" \
--until="2023-07-30" > log1.txt
which I think includes the result of my first boot into debian 12, soon
followed by my killing wireplumber. Hope that helps.

Thanks for replying, I'll try to supply more if needed.

Followup-For: Bug #1042713
Dear Maintainer,
I don't think I was seeing this issue in Bookworm, though I could be
mistaken about that. I am definitely seeing it in Trixie. My laptop is
incredibly hot and like the original reporter of this bug I have to
choose between killing wireplumber and not having any sound vs.
leaving it running and my laptop burning my lap, literally.

One more update... Wireplumber doesn't continuously suck CPU. I have not been able to determine what factors cause the CPU spikes.

I just encountered this again, and sound (both input and output) weren't working while it was going on. I did `systemctl --user restart pipewire pipewire-pulse` and wireplumber stopped spinning and sound started working again. Just posting this update in case somebody else stumbles across this bug report and is looking for a workaround.
