That's it!
The pipewire-pulse.service has got conflict with the pulseaudio.service!
Sorry, I missed the file pulseaudio-setupw-15.0-9.1.x86_64.
Please try;
# rpm -e pulseaudio-setup
this will solve your issue.
Also do this, just in case;
$ systemctl --user mask pulseaudio.service
Maybe, this will return the message;
Unit pulseaudio.service does not exist, proceeding anyway.
Created symlink /home/masaru/.config/systemd/user/pulseaudio.service -> /dev/null.
If this is done, you will see that there is no "error 32: Broken pipe"
message in the output of "systemctl --user status pipewire-pulse.service"
Then, proceed as follows;
$ systemctl --user restart pipewire.service pipewire-pulse.service wireplumber.service
and make sure with
$ ps aux | grep -i pulse
that PA is dead for good while all that happening.
1. check the volume
2. run for test
# pw-play [sound file]
HTH.
Regards.
