Hi Stan,
I *think* it might be that one of the browsers is not closing a sound callback or poll that it has set up. Pipewire or wireplumber try to close it during shutdown, but it is orphaned, so no longer active. A zombie! Someone had that problem with a discord connection recently on the mailing list. Open the ticket against wireplumber, putting all the information you have in this email. Again, I *think*, if my speculation is correct, that wireplumber should, under certain circumstances, ignore such links during shutdown.
Thank you, I will do this.
Question: is there more output I can provide from somewhere?
The only think I can think of is the journal. You could look at the messages from the long running shutdown and see if there are any related to this. When I shutdown, if there is something that is sleeping or suspended, I see a message on the console that it is waiting for the offending process. That might make it into the journal, and give a pointer to the offender.
