I just looked and a pipewire(d) system has only a few additional audio applications, spek, vidcutter, easytag, none of which seem to bring in pipewire. I think I'll have to install it manually on the system which doesn't bring it in as some dependency. Somehow I was under the impression it comes with Plasma these days, but perhaps I have stripped down this Plasma/kde installation too much.
