I tryed out some Equalizers a few days ago. In the progress of finding the one which works the best for me I installed and deinstalled pipewire for pulse and the other way around.
When I found the best equalizer, for me it was EasyEffects, everything worked perfectly fine.
But the next day I started my Computer and I cant find the sound settings as well as the sound miniprogramm in the Top Panel anymore. So I cant change the output device how I used to. Im still able to change it with EasyEffects but thats quite annoying.
I already tryed going in to a snapshot but I tryed so many different things that the auto creating adn deleting of snapshots deleted the working one.
I also tryed deleating all sound things like pipewire, pulse and alsa. But the Systemsettings are not coming back. Also deleting EasyEffects does not help. Already tryed to find someone with the same issue but there only where people who didnt have sounds or there sound is bugging but thats not true for me.
Here are some pics of what I see now:

Before my problem accured there where Settings to change the Volume of the different Audiooutputs and also of programs.
Thanks for your help guys
