      I've been trying for hours to get GX Sound to work on my Linux gaming rig. I'm using PipeWire, and I've got a decent sound card, but nothing. I've fiddled with every volume slider I can find, checked my system's audio settings a million times, and restarted Opera GX so many times I've lost count.

      I'm starting to think it's a Linux-specific issue. I've seen forum posts about PulseAudio conflicts, and I'm wondering if PipeWire is causing problems too. I'm worried I'm missing some crucial dependency or that there's a hidden setting I need to tweak. I've even tried digging through config files, but I'm just making things worse.

      I'm a Linux user, and I'm a gamer. I love Opera GX, but this audio issue is driving me nuts. I just want the custom sound effects to work! Can someone please give me some clear, Linux-specific instructions? I'm tired of messing around and just want it fixed.

        @Queenbee123 There is no Opera GX for Linux, maybe that's why you are having issues.
