I use standard debian packages, there's SASL related patch but it doesn't
seem to affect this issue

The patch introduces a "SASL_CB_GETCONFPATH" callback, that indeed adds
"/etc/postfix/sasl" to the SASL config search path. This creates two
conflicting ways to set the location, with the patch likely overriding
"cyrus_sasl_config_path", and not providing any mechanisms to choose
alternative locations.
I have tried with debian 11 and I can confirm this.
Changing cyrus_sasl_config_path did not help and /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf
was used.
This patch is IMHO obsolete and counterproductive, and should be
deprecated. Debian should take advantage of "cyrus_sasl_config_path",
possibly with a custom compile-time default, or else just set at
install, or at upgrade time (if not already set, and the previous
Postfix version contains the patch).
debian default of /etc/postfix/sasl would be fine, compatibile with previous
versions and both debian and non-debian postfix documentation.
The only thing to decide is whether the upstream mechanism behind
"cyrus_sasl_config_path" should continue to use the simple
sasl_set_path() API:
https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-sasl/blob/master/include/sasl.h
or (for no obvious reason) switch to the more elaborate callback used in
the Debian patch:
https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-sasl/blob/master/include/sasl.h#L678-L687
which seems to be more popular, despite the needlessly fancy ceremony.

Despite the cost of living, have you noticed how popular it remains?
