Hi Bruno,
I checked with Hubert Figuiere who maintains the Flathub Flatpak of
musescore. He said it had problems with previous versions of PipeWire, but
that it works fine for him
with the current version of PipeWire. Would you mind testing again, maybe
test both Fedora RPM and Flathub flatpak version to see if you generally
hit the problem or if there could
be an issue with the Fedora RPM.

Yeah, we hope that too, that said we are also hoping to reduce the amount
of configuration people should need to do,
ideally we should reach a point where we can detect enough of what is
happening to adjust automatically. Our medium/long term hope is
to make PipeWire work so well that musicians shouldn't need a phd in
config files to create music. So the config files will still be there of
course, but
hopefully we can make having to use them be the exception to the rule.
