You can't have pulse audio and pipewire-pulse installed at the same time. pipewire-pulse is just a compatibility layer, all it does is fool software into thinking pulse audio is installed and redirect everything to pipewire and makes the magic work.

I see, thanks a lot for clarifying !

I'll give it a try then.  I guess if using pipewire-pulse, then there's no sense on having pipewire-alsa around, since most applications now a day use pulse as their audio backend...

Thanks again !
