Hi!
Found another strange behavior with pipewire:
During my latest issue playing some audio to a certain channel, I took
pw-play to do the job.
In parallel, audacity should play some background music for the audience.
The two apps cause an interaction I just didn't expect:

They are both directly altering the audio backend volume, not some local volume
control.
I don't know about the official nomenclature, so, I can't tell the
difference between "audio backend volume" and "local volume control".
But whatever happens: It looks wrong to me!
Audacious has a different slider than pw-play in pavucontrol. Still,
altering audacious' volume also alters the volume of pw-play and that's
not what I want…
Greets!
