[RESOLVED] Updated then audio and video system wide stopped working

Hi archlinux forums, I recently updated a couple days ago and I've run into this problem where video stops playing after a few frames and the audio endlessly loops. This occurs on every single video from playing mkv's on mpv to watching YouTube videos. I posted a video showing this issue in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9z2Ipvgi1U
Currently, I have pipewire installed

I just found out what's causing the problem, but I have no solution yet. I have a bluetooth headset with its own USB bluetooth adapter. Unplugging it makes the issue go away. How do I fix this headset issue?

Edit: Got it resolved by removing wireplumber and installing pipewire-media-session

Did you have pipewire-pulse installed while it was broken?
