I observed this in both Chrome and Firefox.

Debug-mode terminal output, testing with Firefox, attempting to record something with https://online-voice-recorder.com/. I have several microphone effects which normally work fine in Discord, but they don't seem to activate for web browser inputs.

Pulseeffects version: 5.0.3
Pipewire version: 0.3.26
Distribution: Fedora 34
Desktop environment: KDE Plasma 5.21.4 Wayland session
pactl list short output
Pulseffects settings

Also another thing. It might be worth updating this wiki page for Pipewire, because a lot of the commands seem pulseaudio-specific.

Firefox developers decided to set a flag that does not allows us to move their microphone audio stream. In its case you have to use its mic selection window and set PulseEffects Source as input.

At least on Chromium I have no problems. I thought it and Chrome behaved the same in this regard.

Yes. But I think I will do that after finishing the gtk4 port because some radical changes are being done in that branch.

Just re-tested it in Chromium and I still hear the same lack of effects. but using Pulseffects Source (at least in Firefox where I tested that) is a good enough work-around for me, thanks. Up to you if you want to keep this issue open then.

Firefox apparently doesn't allow to choose the microphone. It just shows the name of the device and you can either allow or deny. (it has to be chosen inside the website, if the given website had implemented this; and when available, it works)

(can't compare with Chromium, it seems to be completely missing audio/video in Fedora somehow)
