Description: PipeWire ALSA plugin
PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia
pipelines. This includes:
.
- Making available sources of audio and video (such as from a capture devices
or application provided streams) and multiplexing this with clients.
- Accessing sources of audio and video for consumption.
- Generating graphs for audio and video processing.
.
This package contains the ALSA plugin.

This doesn't actually say what it is.

From the arch wiki I found out this is a
plugin /for ALSA/ (clients) to output to pipewire sinks.
That's not what I wanted.

Maybe the package
"contains a plugin for ALSA applications to output via PipeWire"?
Maybe the diest line should also be something similar to
"ALSA->PipeWire plugin".

Best,
