I have a Nova 7 as well. The good thing is that the settings are saved into the headset itself, so you can just set it to how you like in Windows and have it be remembered in Linux.

I setup a small Windows VM and I passthrough the USB device whenever I need to change the settings, but I haven’t needed to do that since I got the headset a year and a half ago. Of course, if you need to constantly change settings, yeah it is less than ideal.

Docker to rootful podman is easy. Docker to rootless podman can get annoying due to the file permissions and slightly more limited networking
