Pulseaudio and pipewrire-pulse are exclusive, so if you install pulseaudio, you cannot install pipewire-pulse, but you should still be able to play sound, although kodi will have no sound. MN> > 2.

I understand your anger, but wouldn't it be faster to rebuild with -DENABLE_PULSEAUDIO=AUTO option? Of course, you need libpulse-devel.
