Pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio are in conflict

Tried a different approach, looked a bit into what I’d need to do to replace pulseaudio, so I removed garuda-pulse and after the update all I needed to do was adding “-e bluez5” to the end of the exec line at /etc/pipewire/pipewire.conf to enable bluetooth audio and then “systemctl restart --user pipewire.service pipewire-pulse.service”

Rebooted the system and everything but switching between my headphones and my laptop speakers from the Plasma’s audio plasmoid work flawlessly. Pipewire is closer and closer from being a perfect substitute to pulse.

EDIT: Found that the main issue that impedes me from switching audio sources comes from an error with pipewire.service

Any ideas of how one can solve this?
