    Thanks for the kind words.

    Actually, the Pulseaudio interaction is minimal (just muting-unmuting the mic), I farm out all the work to pulseaudio-ctl (which is just a shell script calling pacmd).

    I actually opened an issue on that project to support PipeWire, but the CLI is not exactly the same. From what I can tell, this is blocked on some `pacmd` missing features on the PipeWire equivalent.

    Technically, `pw-cli` could grow those features or some processing would be done on top of `pulseaudio-ctl`, and PipeWire support would be included in this project "for free".
