Hey everyone! Today, I was using my chromium web browser just fine, and then did an update, and now no browser will connect to the sound system (I use pipewire). Spotify works great, Reaper is also working (through pw-jack), but Firedragon, Chromium, and firefox won't connect to the sound system. And I have no idea what I did wrong.
I have pipewire, pipewire-pulse, pipewire-alsa, and pipewire-jack all installed. No sound from the browsers.
Pavucontrol-qt doesn't register any browser, and I often use Carla to connect stuff, like browsers, to my pro audio software, both ardour and reaper. The browsers are not showing up there, but Spotify is. Even Steam and games refuse to connect to the audio system. VLC doesn't register to the sound system either.
Any thoughts on what I borked? I'm not looking forward to reinstalling garuda or arch.
