Pipewire - Changing audio devices causes no sound output

Changing sound output device using GNOME settings results in no sound output until I restart the pipewire user service.

This has been going on for months and is really annoying.

Motherboard:    MSI MPG X570 GAMING EDGE WIFI (MS-7C37)
Kernel: 6.1.9-arch1-1
DE: GNOME 43.2
WM: Mutter on X-Org

Re: Pipewire - Changing audio devices causes no sound output

I'm coming from Gentoo but suffered from the exact same problem.
I'm running Pipewire with wireplumber (with seems to be the same for OP).

I fixed my problem by downgrading pipewire to 0.3.66 (I was using 0.3.68)

Re: Pipewire - Changing audio devices causes no sound output

I experience the same issue. Changing the output sink in the Gnome quick settings only works sometimes and some Chrome tabs continue playing sound on the previous output sink. Any idea why that is or how I can resolve it?
