Does not start on Kubuntu 24.04: "Unable to init the device, Error code :3" #16

Description

@transmit-receive

Problem:
FPC atomic extracts CD data, but fails to start with "Unable to init the device, Error code :3", this corresponds to BASS error 3 = BASS_ERROR_DRIVER, meaning BASS cannot find a usable audio driver/device.

Solution:
Install the basic ALSA/Pulse/PipeWire compatibility packages and restart the audio session.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install libasound2t64 libasound2-plugins alsa-utils pipewire-audio pipewire-alsa
systemctl --user restart pipewire pipewire-pulse wireplumber

Fixed it for me. Thanks for the great software.
