Description

Using the OSS backend and `padsp` is a temporary solution. It also shows issues like https://github.com/flathub/net.purrdata.PurrData/issues/10

We might be able to install Pipewire client libraries inside the Flatpak and use PD's JACK backend. This would require that the host system had a new enough Pipewire daemon.

Research direction

Start by checking how the Flatpak currently uses the OSS backend and padsp, then investigate whether PipeWire client libraries can be installed in the Flatpak and whether Pure Data's JACK backend works with the host daemon. Done means the application uses PipeWire/JACK by default without relying on the temporary OSS/padsp setup.
