The room that prompted this had a television on HDMI with working PCM audio and nothing in the analog jack, and WirePlumber chose analog. A teacher who corrected it by hand then had to restart the browser before any sound came out. The policy is a pure function so it can be tested against that room rather than against a machine: an unavailable port is not a candidate, an analog port merely existing is not evidence of a cable, and an explicit AUDIO_OUTPUT overrides the lot. Twelve cases, the real room among them. The daemon follows PipeWire's own event stream rather than polling, and moves streams that are already playing, which is the part that stops a teacher having to close and reopen the browser.

# Window rules.

# There is one, and it is about video.

#
|
|
# Everything else the classroom used to arrange by hand is ordinary window
|
|
# manager behaviour and needs no rule: a dialog stays in front of the window
|
|
# that opened it, a window a page opens floats over the browser instead of
|
|
# resizing it, and a print dialog is the window in front.
|
|
#
|
|
# There is deliberately no rule that maximises the browser. A rule can only
|
|
# match a window class, and Chrome gives its main window and every window a
|
|
# page opens the same one — matching on it maximised the lesson's popup to
|
|
# the whole display, which is the behaviour this architecture exists to
|
|
# stop. Chrome can tell them apart, so `--start-maximized` in the launcher
|
|
# does it: the first window fills the screen, later ones keep the size the
|
|
# page asked for. Arranging that from outside the browser is what the old
|
|
# 314-line window arbiter was doing.
