* fix(x): make meeting system-audio capture work on Linux (#722)
Meeting transcription failed on Linux because the system-audio side of
the recorder was unreliable there. Two real problems, neither of which
was the one proposed in the issue:
- desktopCapturer.getSources() goes through the Wayland screencast
portal, which can block on a system dialog or hang outright. Audio-only
display-media requests (meeting transcription discards the video track)
now answer with the requesting frame as the mandatory video source and
Chromium's PulseAudio loopback for audio - no portal involved.
- Chromium captures loopback audio at the default sink's monitor-source
volume. Desktop tools sometimes leave that volume near zero, which
turns the capture into digital silence with no error anywhere. Before
capture starts, ensureLinuxMonitorVolume() raises it back to 100%
(raise-only, best-effort via pactl).
The issue's proposed fix - enumerating PipeWire/Pulse monitor sources
via enumerateDevices() and capturing with getUserMedia - is not viable:
Chromium filters monitor sources out of input-device enumeration on
Linux (audio_manager_pulse.cc), so they never appear. Verified against
Electron 39 / Chromium 142 that audio:'loopback' works on Linux through
the Pulse layer (PipeWire's pipewire-pulse or classic PulseAudio).
On Linux the loopback track mirrors the output device rather than the
meeting app, so "ended" never fires when the meeting closes; auto-stop
relies on the existing silence detector. Capture failures now surface a
toast pointing at PipeWire/PulseAudio instead of silently going idle.
