summary

PulseAudio currently only ships the mandatory SBC codec, and work adds real codec support by plugging GStreamer into the stack: a LDAC encoder plugin is written in about a month and merged into GStreamer (targets 1.20), AAC‑LATM support is implemented and under review, and aptX support arrives via libopenaptx/gst plugins; a proof‑of‑concept codec switching via PulseAudio messaging API exists and a merge request is open, aiming to land in distros by mid‑year. LDAC encoder plugin merged into GStreamer (1.20)
