Comment:
I got wireplumber working without needing to add any dbus variables (though
this would've been good to know), but I did have to start the script
through my DE (I'm currently using gnome and therefore
xdg-desktop-portal-gtk, but I tried on wlr compositors as well) as opposed
to running it as a service. I actually had to run pipewire and desktop
portal through the script as well to get them all playing nicely. I'll keep
this in mind if I do ever have to set this up again, but hopefully a
service will make this irrelevant.

Edit: Well that was interesting timing for my reply. I'll have to try this sometime one it all gets pushed.
