Ledfx is using python sounddevice so according to this you need to have pulse like audio device in audio settings

from ledfx.

Unfortunately, only these three devices show up:

Is there anything else I could check?

from ledfx.

You try and set audio device id in the config in your case 9 what is shown in python sounddevice for pulse

from ledfx.

Setting the device id manually in the config doesn't do anything. I've also tried to build LedFx locally to get some more debug information, but aubio wouldn't build.
I'm having the same problem on another machine which is also running Arch. Any more ideas?

from ledfx.

Only thing else I can think of is to use docker and build it inside docker on debian and pass pulseaudio socket inside docker container

@skymaker-c2is FYI as far as building aubio on newer distros, I posted a workaround in #511 - aubio has fixes for FFMPEG >= 5.0 in their git master but they have not done a release in more than four years. :(
