ALVR only lists audio inputs as sources to stream

ALVR doesn't give me the option to select any of my audio outputs and only finds inputs.

I'm experiencing the same on Arch Linux with ALVR 19.0.0_dev00+nightly.2022.08.16-1.

Instead of sending the default output device audio (PC speakers in my case) to my Quest 2 speakers, it sends the default input device audio (microphone in my case). Basically, the HMD speakers just play whatever the microphone hears instead of the desktop audio.

Id sugest installing pavucontrol and via its gui heading to the recording tab and manualy selecing the one you want for alvr. It will remember this even if you shut down alvr, just gotta do it each reboot
