There is an updated pull request by CameronNemo against master on the void-packages repository https://github.com/CameronNemo/void-packages pipewire-session https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/38521 pipewire: use a drop-in to autostart p-m-s It should be possible to disable autostart of pipewire-media-session and use some other method to start it, or start wireplumber instead. Rather than patch /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf, ship a drop-in config in /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d that can be overridden. #### Testing the changes - I tested the changes in this PR: **YES** A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/38521.patch is attached
