Hello, Kevin!

I found discussion forums about Pipewire for Ubuntu, but pretty much 
everything I saw there boiled down to "When will Ubuntu replace 
Pusleaudio with Pipewire?"

There was also a lot of Pipewire fanboi-ing, too. 'Pipewire is perfect, 
wonderful, will solve all problems that have ever existed in the A/V field.'

Pipewire's main site links to their documentation, wiki, and issue tracker.

https://pipewire.org/

Maybe that helps?
