Audacity on Void Linux - Just use pw-jack

 Just a short note: If you're using Void Linux with PipeWire for managing audio, be sure to install the libjack-pipewire package.

To launch Audacity:

$ pw-jack audacity

After this, you should be able to select any PipeWire device through the JACK interface in Audacity's user interface. (PortAudio does not directly support PipeWire... but who cares when you have awesome wrapper libraries!)
