I have tested it on twister os. All fine for me. I use I raspian and I don't have to change to pulse audio in the Taskbar. Bluetooth connection with my Bluetoothbox works perfect. Nice update. Very nice to hear sound from different devices at same time. 😊
Got an SSD on the way, glad that they've done a lot to improve Rpi OS. I've tried several other OS's including UbuntuMATE, Manjaro, and I'm currently running TwisterOS. However, all of them seem to have one or two large issues that make it unusable for me. RpiOS has always worked for me, and I think I'm going to go all in on it with the SSD. Love the content, keep it up!
I’ve talk to the raspberry pi engineers about this, but one thing I don’t like about the raspberry pi OS is that the taskbar is completely in accessible with orca, and the file manager has its own problems as well, like directories and things not being read properly. What i've done, is install the mate desktop with speech on a pi4, and it works better. But i love that they added pulseaudio finally! It makes things so much better!

When i first installed Pi OS on my Pi 4 I had no sound at all. Later I did sudo apt purge pulseaudio and got sound. Then I bought some bluetoothe earbuds which need pulseaudio and so they never worked. At the last upgrade pulseaudio got installed again but while my earbuds can pair i still get no sound from them. It really is a complicated minefield but thank you to the developers for addressing this problem. After watching this video I will now try again.
Thanks for all the hard work and tips , I love Twister OS , all upgraded and overclocked to 2147 😁 Everything works great , only issue I have is low audio out of the 3.5 mm Jack , bought a USB Sound card , perfect 👍, but I would like to solve the 3.5 Jack issue , yes I got pulse audio installed lol
A few weeks ago I updated buster and my audio output went mute. I couldn't get a peep out using HDMI 1 or 2, analog or Bluetooth. It wouldn't even work with a USB sound card. After a frustrating 3 days of trial and armor I came upon a post with the same problem. They suggested doing a purge of pulse-audio * which finally worked. I am hesitant to add pulse-audio back without a very compelling reason to do so.
Thanks; I was having trouble with my sound control however after your video I'm once again moving forward with Raspberry pi 4 4gb. I love the direct interface to the printer.

Why did you do "apt upgrade" when the official instructions say to always use "apt full-upgrade"? Most of the time it does the same thing, but without "full-", it will skip any updates (ahh, "upgrades") that require replacing a package with a differently-named package. Also, an addendum to the blog post notes that if you have an ~/.asoundrc file, you should remove it. And any apps that had directly selected a particular "ALSA" device for I/O previously may try to bypass the PulseAudio layer, causing unreliable operation until that bit of app-specific configuration is changed.
If you use zsh instead of bash, set zsh as your default terminal, it will auto complete installed aps. It'll also remember every command you've entered. It's WAY more productive than bash. Give it a try!
dmenu: very simple/lightweight app launcher. Look for it in the terminal with 'apt search dmenu'. One of the results will be suckless-tools. To show details for suckless-tools, type 'apt show suckless-tools'.
