Yes, I can imagine, but the Mac displays the monitors the same way "KDE Display configuration" does. in my case "C27F..." and for the microphone, Mac presents it as RODE USB. Also, the Mac knows the built-in devices from the external and mention (MacBook Pro speaker/Mic or something like that). I think that can be done too > Are those monitors actively connected?

Until then, is there a way to manually configure a friendly name for the devices without hacking into the kernel :D? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
