It seems I am out of luck:
$ sudo dnf install alsa-plugins-pulseaudio
Package alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.2.2-1.fc32.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!
Its already installed.
Now what do I do ?
Early on you were asked to run pavucontrol and bash didn't find it.
Apologies if I missed further mention of pavucontrol, but have you tried
"dnf install pavucontrol"? You also mentioned that audacity might be a
flatpak. In that case there may be a miscommunication between the flatpak
and fedora's audio support.
It is worth looking for reports of linux installs (of any distro) on your
laptop model for discussions of audio problems. I have a desktop that
disables the analog audio output if it is sending audio to HDMI --
unfortunately my monitor has terrible speakers and (unlike TV's) no analog
audio output.
