For the thumbnails not showing make sure you have kpipewire installed. The settings are not shown because they are not relevant on Wayland I have kpipewire installed. Ok, it turned out that I had to properly install pipewire & all packages but pulseaudio was running instead. sudo pacman -S pipewire wireplumber pipewire-pulse pipewire-alsa pipewire-jack It automatically remove conflicting packages. Using command :~$ pactl info make sure you have Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 0.3.63) and not Server Name: pulseaudio And you need to start it manually or add it to autostart scripts. I found that (in my case) script had to be in KDE's autostart folder. https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Site/PipewireInsteadPulseaudio |
