That issue have nothing to do with pipewire, but with how the

normal kernel operations and user/group permissions, you must work with
them. It will be both much simpler and more reliable on the long run to
use a joe user member of the audio group, and instead of messing with
cron jobs which was never intended to be used to implement joe user
tasks, just make a joe user (bash-python-...) script that will implement
what you want to do.
On linux, the audio devices can be acceded by
only 1 user at a time.
Which imply, instead of being root for everything audio related, I
would login as an user member of the audio group and, instead of
using cron, make a custom user script.
Thanks, but if Pipewire is going to prevent access to audio devices by
cronjobs, either accidentally or by design, then I'll be removing it.
