Dear Maintainer,
libcanberra-pulse is the default backend for playing notification sounds in
GNOME. Currently it depends directly on pulseaudio. When one wants to
transition from pulseaudio to pipewire, this dependency makes it problematic to
completely remove pulseaudio. The solution is to add "pulseaudio | pipewire-
pulse" as the dependency instead of only pulseaudio.

Thanks,
Guy
