I think it's still the case that when you install pipewire, there's
some things that pretend to be pulseaudio for the programs that expect
to use pulseaudio.  It can add confusion to things.

In general, I've found VLC offers me choices of the two available audio
hardware devices on my PC:  HDMI or an external USB devices.  

I think I disabled the motherboard audio within UEFI, since I'll never
use it.  Or it could be that it detects when there's a jack in a
socket.  "lspci" shows it, but it's not showing up on VLC's list.
