Thanks for reminding me!

Powered down and rebooted.  No sound in Firefox, or xine.

Installed apulse.  Still no sound in firefox, or xine.

Re-installed pulseaudio.  Sound is back.

Uninstalled pulseaudio.  Reinstalled pipewire.  No sound.

Uninstalled pipewire.  Reinstalled pulseaudio.  Sound is back.


Looks like I'm stuck with pulsaudio.

BTW: As expected, play and aplay work just fine with neither pulseaudio
or pipewire installed.
