chore(deps): bump cpal from 0.17.3 to 0.18.1

[dependabot]

Bumps cpal from 0.17.3 to 0.18.1.

Release notes

Sourced from cpal's releases.

cpal 0.18.1

A quick follow-up to 0.18.0 primarily to fix the docs.rs build failure.

• docs.rs: Excluded pipewire, whose system dependency isn't available in that sandboxed build environment.
• WASM: Fixed the audioworklet feature failing to compile on wasm32-wasip1 and other non-browser wasm32 targets.

No API or behavioral changes.

cpal 0.18.0

Hey everyone! cpal 0.18.0 is out, bringing two long-requested native Linux backends, a unified error API, and accurate timestamps across every platform.

What's New

Native PipeWire and PulseAudio

Two new first-class backends join the Linux and BSD lineup:

• PipeWire
• PulseAudio

Enable them with the pipewire and pulseaudio Cargo features. When multiple backends are compiled in, cpal selects the best available one at runtime: PipeWire > PulseAudio > ALSA.

Unified Error API

All per-operation error enums (DevicesError, BuildStreamError, StreamError, etc.) are replaced by a single cpal::Error with a kind() getter:

match device.default_output_config() {
    Err(e) => match e.kind() {
        cpal::ErrorKind::DeviceNotAvailable => { /* ... */ }
        cpal::ErrorKind::DeviceBusy => { /* retry */ }
        _ => { /* ... */ }
    }
}

Two new error kinds make previously indistinguishable cases actionable: DeviceBusy (EBUSY/EAGAIN is retryable) and PermissionDenied for OS-level access denials. See the upgrading guide for the mapping table.

Accurate Timestamps and A/V Sync

Timestamps previously reflected when the callback fired rather than when audio would actually reach hardware. This release corrects that across every backend:

• AAudio: pipeline buffer depth accounted for; fallback to zero on error fixed

Changelog

Sourced from cpal's changelog.

[0.18.1] - 2026-06-07

Fixed

• Exclude pipewire from the docs.rs build; system dependency not available in its environment.
• Fix wasm-bindgen causing compile errors on non-browser wasm32 targets such as wasm32-wasip1.

[0.18.0] - 2026-06-06

Added

• New ErrorKind variants for the unified error type: BackendError (platform error without a specific mapping); DeviceBusy (retryable device access, e.g. EBUSY/EAGAIN); DeviceChanged (audio route changed to another device); InvalidInput (invalid caller-supplied values); PermissionDenied (OS-level access denial); RealtimeDenied (real-time scheduling refused — previously only printed to stderr); ResourceExhausted (OS thread/memory limits); UnsupportedOperation (backend or device does not implement the operation).
• Device now implements PartialEq, Eq, Hash, Display, and Debug on all backends.
• realtime feature for real-time audio thread scheduling without a D-Bus build dependency.
• StreamTrait::now() to query the current instant on the stream's clock.
• StreamTrait::buffer_size() to query the stream's current buffer size in frames per callback.
• SAMPLE_RATE_CD (44100 Hz) and SAMPLE_RATE_48K (48000 Hz) constants.
• SupportedStreamConfigRange::try_with_standard_sample_rate() and with_standard_sample_rate() to select 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz from a range.
• SupportedStreamConfigRange::contains_rate() to test whether a sample rate falls within a range.
• StreamConfig and SupportedStreamConfig now implement Copy.
• BufferSize now implements Default (returns BufferSize::Default).
• SupportedBufferSize now implements Default (returns SupportedBufferSize::Unknown).
• HostTrait::device_by_id() is now backend-dispatched, allowing each host to override the default implementation.
• DSD512 sample rates added to the common rate probe list.
• AAudio: Streams now request PERFORMANCE_MODE_LOW_LATENCY with the realtime feature; reports ErrorKind::RealtimeDenied if not granted.
• ALSA: device_by_id() now accepts PCM shorthand names such as hw:0,0 and plughw:foo.
• CoreAudio: tvOS target support (Tier 3, requires nightly).
• PipeWire: New host for Linux and BSD via the native PipeWire API.
• PulseAudio: New host for Linux and BSD via the PulseAudio API.
• WASAPI: F64 sample format support.

Changed

• Changed per-operation error types (DevicesError, SupportedStreamConfigsError, etc.) and HostUnavailable into a unified Error/ErrorKind. See https://github.com/RustAudio/cpal/blob/master/UPGRADING.md.
• DeviceTrait now requires PartialEq + Eq + Hash + Debug + Display with a stable device ID.
• DeviceTrait::build_*_stream() now takes StreamConfig by value instead of &StreamConfig.
• StreamInstant API changed and extended to mirror std::time::Instant/Duration. See https://github.com/RustAudio/cpal/blob/master/UPGRADING.md for migration details.
• Streams no longer start automatically on build_*_stream(); call play() explicitly. Previously ALSA, CoreAudio, and JACK auto-started streams on creation.
• Default output and input configs now prefer 48 kHz, then 44.1 kHz, then the device maximum.

CRITICAL

Breaking changes in cpal 0.18.0 require code updates:

cpal 0.18.0 changed DeviceTrait::build_*_stream() to take StreamConfig by value instead of by reference.

The file crates/milkrust-desktop/src/audio_provider.rs (lines 247-279) passes &cpal::StreamConfig to build_input_stream(). This signature changed in cpal 0.18.0:

// Old (cpal 0.17):
.device.build_input_stream(
    config,  // &StreamConfig
    ...
)

// New (cpal 0.18):
.device.build_input_stream(
    config,  // StreamConfig (by value)
    ...
)

Additionally, the unified error API changes (DevicesError, BuildStreamError → cpal::Error) may require updating error handling on lines 170-171, 217, and 279.

See: https://github.com/RustAudio/cpal/blob/master/UPGRADING.md

Other Observations (not in diff)

N/A - the actual code changes needed are in audio_provider.rs which is not modified in this PR but will require updates for compatibility.
