First of all, good to be back. Issues with MediaWiki, along with time constraints on fixing it, have prevented new articles from being created.
Anyway, working on several different Routers running OpenWRT 23.05.03 using PulseAudio, MPD (MPC), Bluetooth (BlueZ), and a bunch of other stuff including PulseMixer (works great on OpenWRT, even though the 'required' version is above the version of Python3 available in OpenWRT).
