pavucontrol says it cannot connect to pulseaudio. I am guessing this is because wireplumber > pipewire is now in control; pulseaudio has been removed and replaced with pipewire-pulse? This is all that is left of pulseaudio: ii libkf5pulseaudioqt5:amd64 1.5.0-3 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0:amd64 16.1+dfsg1-5.1 ii libpulse0:amd64 16.1+dfsg1-5.1 ii pavucontrol 6.0-1 ii pipewire-pulse 1.2.3-1 `wpctl status` shows the following: Audio ├─ Devices: │ 48. GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller [alsa] │ 49. Gaming Webcam [Kiyo] [alsa] │ 50. Built-in Audio [alsa] ├─ Sinks: │ * 59. Built-in Audio Analog Stereo [vol: 0.40] The default audio sink is 59.
