@nicholasdezai found that the format is not correctly setup in line: https://github.com/rust-vmm/vhost-device/blob/9f8ba88c197df381740e77c5b673ffb122e2ec24/vhost-device-sound/src/audio_backends/pipewire.rs#L322 This shall be fixed in next pw release that includes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire-rs/-/merge_requests/226/diffs. The fix would look like: ```rust audio_info.set_format(AudioFormat(info.format)); ```
