Teamspeak6 Beta3 on Fresh Ubuntu 25.10 Hardware Encoding not detected (Intel A380 / QSV)

I’ve installed TeamSpeak 6 beta3 on my test system using a fresh and updated Ubuntu 25.10 install using the following test system:

  • CPU: Intel i5-11400 (supports Quick Sync Video)

  • GPU 1: Intel UHD 730 (integrated)

  • GPU 2: Intel Arc A380 (DG2)

  • Drivers: intel-media-va-driver-non-free installed, i915 and xe kernel modules loaded

  • FFmpeg version: 7.1.1

  • TeamSpeak version: 6.0.0-beta3

Problem:
TeamSpeak only shows “Internal (software)” as the encoding type and does not use hardware encoding (QSV or VAAPI). and the options are grayed out and I am unable to change them.

System checks:

  • vainfo shows encoding support for H264, HEVC, VP9, AV1 and more

  • FFmpeg lists hardware encoders such as h264_qsv, hevc_qsv, av1_qsv

  • Kernel drivers i915 and xe are loaded, and /dev/dri/renderD128 and renderD129 devices exist

Is this to be expected?

Thanks for the report. We can reproduce the issue and are looking into it.
