I haven't been able to find many references to pipewire WRT the Raspberry Pi
OS. Interestingly in one Forum post, a user asking a query about the Pi 400,
says 'I see that pulse audio and pipewire is running'.
I see pipewire running on my desktop machine if I search for it in htop, but
not on any of the three Pis I have running here (VPN, Music and Bells).
However, they are all running Raspberry Pi OS Lite; the full version may have
it or will get it soon.

I only did it with these Pis because there's a fair time before they're needed
in anger and it's easy to go back to buster using the SD Card backups.
I think that trying to bring all of the River System Pis up to bullseye at the
same time would be a bit of a nightmare just at the moment.
