hi folks!
Update: I got pipewire working now. This is what helped me:
sudo apt install pipewire-audio-client-libraries libspa-0.2-bluetooth libspa-0.2-jack
systemctl --user mask pulseaudio
systemctl --user --now enable pipewire{,-pulse}.{socket,service}
Now it is an audacity issue. Will make another thread for that.
The System
Processor 10920x, 32GB Ram, 3060ti, zoom u-22 DAC, Stream Deck, Logitech camera
The OS
Ubuntu 23.04 upgraded from 22.10 (yesterday)
TL;DR
I reactivated pulseaudio, disabling pipewire, now trying to revert without having to reinstall from scratch.
The Situation
I am currently working on my first linux daily driver. Hardware arrived yesterday. The pc has been in use for couple months but not as daily since the gpu was only a stand in.
It was running quite a rough config, ubuntu 22.10 with a pulse audio mod (disabled pipewire so I could hear sound when RDPing in).
I now reverted those changes with a guide (because my microphone would not be picked up by audacity) but it promptly destroyed my Desktop gui. I reinstalled ubuntu-desktop and the gui works again now.
But after disabling pulse and reenabling pipewire, I don't get any sound output at all. pipewire status gives me the following output:

Update
I have tried to re/install pipewire, xdg-desktop-portal, xdg-desktop-portal-gnome, all without change.
Important: I'm using x11, not wayland as nvidia drivers don't seem to support wayland.
Thank you for reading. Have a good one! :)
what give output for u
systemctl --user status xdg-desktop-portal.service.Also do u have installed packages pipewire-pulse and pipewire-media-session or wireplumber.Thanks for answering! I'm banging my head against this proverbial wall for hours.
Here's the output of your command:
Here's the pipewire-pulse version
Here's the pipewire-media-session version output:
output of wireplumber --version
So I recon the first two are installed, wireplumber isnt (in fact I think uninstalling it was part of reverting to pipewire iirc.
Here's more random output someone on a forum asked for:
