[Bug 1950040] Re: Wayland Screensharing broken in Ubuntu 21.10

[Esokrates]

Downgrading to the following package versions from Ubuntu 21.04 makes
screen sharing work on Ubuntu 21.10:

gstreamer1.0-pipewire_0.3.24-3_amd64.deb
libpipewire-0.3-0_0.3.24-3_amd64.deb
libpipewire-0.3-modules_0.3.24-3_amd64.deb
libspa-0.2-modules_0.3.24-3_amd64.deb
pipewire_0.3.24-3_amd64.deb
pipewire-bin_0.3.24-3_amd64.deb

Title:
  Wayland Screensharing broken in Ubuntu 21.10

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in pipewire package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in xdg-desktop-portal package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Freshly installed Ubuntu 21.10, screen sharing does not work with any
  browser, tested the following options:

  - Firefox snap
  - Firefox deb
  - Chromium snap
  - Chromium flatpak

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/Pluginfree-Screen-Sharing/#7325517390736006
  2. Select to share the whole desktop in the xdg-desktop-portal
  3. Notice the orange screen share indicator in Gnome-Shell but actually nothing is shared in the browser.

  This should be handled high priority since this is a critical feature
  during the pandemic.

  Filed against ubuntu-meta since I don't know exactly which package to
  blame, whether it's pipewire, xdg-desktop portal or some problem
  directely with mutter / gnome-shell, please reassign accordingly.
