While many things can be configured via the terminal in Linux, this often requires knowing the right commands. That’s why it’s often more convenient to use dedicated apps for specific tasks — like renaming audio devices.

In this case, you can install the [**Simple Wireplumber GUI**](https://github.com/dyegoaurelio/simple-wireplumber-gui) utility, which lets you view the properties of audio inputs and outputs and quickly rename them.
