Audio jacks. I have a 5.1 system, and to use it properly I have to install HDAJackRetask. You can’t just specify 5.1 surround sound from the distro’s standard audio settings menu.
Pavuctl still is kind of mandatory to have with most DEs (you should be able to set the proper audio profile in it for 5.1?). Amusingly even on Pipewire systems.
Especially weird to see on Gnome. Audio Settings are rather meh, you still can’t even set how the background is displayed since Gnome 3 either (centered, stretched, fit etc. - unless you know about the “optimizations” app) …but look at our new “Wellbeing” feature! 🦶

Hi. Are you referring to the “optimizations” app, gnome-tweaks ?
