I have not tried running it without and so have no hard knowledge on that. 
But do remember the source. It comes from the RH ecosystem.

However, if you are running without systemd and presumably without pulse, 
why would you not just use jack? With the right device, jack is very 
stable. Pipewire is trying to emulate jack and in general not improve on 
jack.
