Thanks both!

gnome-core is switching from pulseaudio to pipewire [1] without an alternative
otherwise upgraders will stay with pulseaudio.
It would be nice to have the possibility to stay with the alternative
pulseaudio, but I think there is no easy way?

I suppose [1] is enough to fix this issue at least for gnome-core, others DE
will probably have a similar issue requiring this hack.

Best,
Dylan
