Since upgrading pipewire and attendant packages to 1:0.3.59-2, sound hasn't been working well on my system. When I start my computer, nothing can play audio until I clear ~/.local/state/wireplumber and reboot, at which point I can have one process play audio. For example, Lollypop music player will play one song, then throw an error when the next queued one should start. Or I can open VLC and watch a movie. I'm looking to get to the root cause of this rather than doing something hacky like writing a script to constantly clear wireplumber settings. Any advice?

Why is pulseaudio running as well? You want either pulseaudio or wireplumber controlling your audio devices, not both. If you want to actually switch to pipewire as a stack then install pipewire-audio and pipewire-pulse (... and pipewire-alsa) if you want to stay on pulseaudio and only use pipewire for screen sharing remove pipewire-audio and wireplumber and switch that to pipewire-media-session and keep pulseaudio.

I installed pipewire-pulse, which uninstalled pulseaudio and another package or two. That seems to have solved it. Thanks!
