[SOLVED] Pipewire silences quiet sounds

I've made a switch from pulseaudio (or rather pulseaduio with pipewire, I really do not know how it worked) to pipewire (by removing all pulseaudio I could remove).

And now I have a problem, that whenever the sound is quiet (but still there, like ambient sounds in movie) the sound is muted. I do not know why or even how I can check what is happening. I've tried to remove:

- /etc/pipewire
- /etc/wireplumber
- ~/.config/pipewire
- ~/.config/wireplumber

And nothing changed.

I use RODE RODECaster Pro II and I've installed `aur/rodecaster-pro2-pipewire`.

Where else should I look?

[SOLVED]
First of all, it was not a pipewire issue. Roadcaster PRO II has a problem with naming of outputs (it has two). Main and chat. I was pushing audio to output name "main" which, in fact, was a "chat", which has a "low volume filter". After realising and switching it works ok.
