Well I finally got audio working fine under pipewire. I'm just not sure what the problem was! I tried several things, changed settings, checked logs and started trawling through bug reports. It seems a few people gave up with pipewire, and reverted back to pulseaudio. So, feeling the same way, I decided to go back to pulseaudio. Bad move! My laptop then said it had no audio devices! So, I removed the 'pulseaudio' package, and reinstalled the pipewire packages that had been removed. I also reinstalled 'pipewire-alsa'. Surprise! Audio now worked :-) With the laptop I also have a docking station, external monitor with builtin speakers, an external webcam with mic, USB headphones with mic and some Hyper-X headphones (excellent by the way) with mic which can be plugged in via USB or the audio jack. I tested using the system settings, Amarok and (for work) MS Teams and Zoom. Using all sorts of combinations it all worked fine.
