I wonder if the rate switching will change anything for those of us who like to have their sample rate at 48k and currently suffer from gradually growing audio delay in CS2.
There's an open issue somewhere on GitHub (Valve's CS2 repo), it seems to be an issue with SDL, which Counter Strike uses to interface with pipewire. Afaik no one is quite sure why the delay builds up, but it doesn't seem like an issue with pipewire itself.
