archipelago 8a450bb8f8 feat(audio): HDMI audio works out of the box — pipewire in ISO + router daemon + ELD boot-race heal
Root cause of silent HDMI on kiosk TVs (framework-pt, LG TV):
1) fresh ISOs installed NO audio stack even though the kiosk launcher
   expects PipeWire-Pulse — add pipewire/pipewire-pulse/pipewire-alsa/
   wireplumber/alsa-utils to the rootfs and put the archipelago user in
   'audio' (linger user manager gets no logind seat ACLs on /dev/snd);
2) the kiosk's boot-time Xorg modeset races the i915→HDA audio-component
   bind, the ELD notify is lost, and every HDMI profile stays
   'available: no' forever. Verified live: one off/on modeset re-delivers
   the ELD and WirePlumber immediately switches to HDMI.

New archipelago-audio-router daemon (same splice-from-configs pattern as
the kiosk, ISO + include_str! self-heal): routes the card to the best
available HDMI profile, keeps the default sink on it, migrates live
streams on hot-plug, unmutes (HDMI forced 100% — the TV owns volume), and
re-modesets a connected external output once when no ELD reports a
monitor. bootstrap::ensure_audio_stack() installs packages + router on
already-deployed kiosk nodes via OTA (apt through systemd-run — the
service sandbox keeps /usr and dpkg read-only). main.rs also spawns the
pine satellite keeper.

Archived ISO build recipes

These scripts built the Archipelago auto-installer ISO (bundled and unbundled variants). As of v1.7.43-alpha, ISOs are no longer part of the release deliverable. Releases ship as tarballs consumed by scripts/self-update.sh on existing nodes.

Archived here rather than deleted so they can be resurrected if ISO distribution is reintroduced.

Contents

  • build-auto-installer-iso.sh — orchestrator, bundles container images into squashfs
  • build-unbundled-iso.sh — thin wrapper that sets BUNDLE_IMAGES=0 and delegates
  • test-iso-qemu.sh — smoke-tests a built ISO under QEMU
  • scripts/convert-iso-to-disk.sh — converts an ISO to a raw disk image
  • BUILD-ISO-STATUS.md, ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md — contributor guides
  • branding/isohdpfx.bin — isolinux MBR hybrid image
  • .gitea-workflows/build-iso-dev.yml — CI workflow that ran the build+smoke-test

To resurrect

  1. git mv image-recipe/_archived/* image-recipe/ (adjust paths back)
  2. Restore .gitea/workflows/build-iso-dev.yml
  3. Re-add release-process references (see scripts/create-release.sh, docs/BETA-RELEASE-CHECKLIST.md, docs/hotfix-process.md, README.md).

Why archived

The release flow is simpler and faster as tarball-only:

  • releases/vX.Y.Z-alpha/archipelago (backend binary)
  • releases/vX.Y.Z-alpha/archipelago-frontend-X.Y.Z-alpha.tar.gz (frontend + AIUI + filebrowser UI assets)
  • releases/manifest.json (pointers + changelog)

Nodes pull these via scripts/self-update.sh from either Gitea mirror. Filebrowser and AIUI remain bundled inside the frontend tarball and deployed atomically by self-update.sh.
