[SOLVED] pipewire not working with Chrome in Wayland since GNOME 3.36

I've been able for long time to share my screen with Chrome (via WebRTC) during a Google Meet call for example thanks to pipewire as described in this wiki
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PipeWire
However since GNOME 3.36 it's no longer working even using pipewire-git packages. As soon as I select my desktop it just stops sharing. I've also tryed with firefox nightly but I only get a black background and the mouse pointer.
Any suggestion? Thanks!

Ok I've found the solution here: [https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=254217]
and updated the wiki accordingly: [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pi … en_sharing]
