[SOLVED] Can't properly set up pipewire

Hi
I'm having problems with setting up pipewire.
I followed steps from https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PipeWire
But I can't get this line working:
"Default Sink: auto_null"

note 1: I have fedora in dualboot and it also uses pipewire and everything works there
note 2: it seems that my arch has pipewire working (Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 1.0.8) line in pactl info)
note 3: I'm a complete noob pipewire so I really don't know what should I check now...

pactl info from fedora:

Server String: /run/user/1000/pulse/native
Library Protocol Version: 35
Server Protocol Version: 35
Is Local: yes
Client Index: 82
Tile Size: 65472
User Name: mszeptuch
Host Name: fedora
Server Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 1.0.8)
Server Version: 15.0.0
Default Sample Specification: float32le 2ch 48000Hz
Default Channel Map: front-left,front-right
Default Sink: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3-platform-skl_hda_dsp_generic.HiFi__hw_sofhdadsp__sink
Default Source: alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1f.3-platform-skl_hda_dsp_generic.HiFi__hw_sofhdadsp_6__source
Cookie: 3219:5e8e

(i'll put arch log in a sec)

Make sure the sof-firmware package is installed on Arch.
