After F34 upgrade the default audio output device is wrong after every reboot.
After every reboot it is, apparently, a "PCM2902 Audio Codec Analog Stereo", which goes anywhere.
It's not much of hassle to go into Volume Control and click on "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo", but it's rather annoying. Does anyone know where and how to set the default?

Just, when PULSEAUDIO started working somehow, brilliant idea, change to pipewire in F34...

I'm still trying to analyze the situation. Another reboot did seem to have concluded with audio working by default.
Rooting around in $HOME I see some promising noises coming out of $HOME/.config/pipewire/media-session.d, it seems to contain some vague handwaving about defaults, and it's possible that pipewire will get it wrong just once per application. Which wouldn't be the end of the world, but still annoying.
Still doing some testing, but however it turns out to be I will be willing to shut up about this, on the condition that another software package gets replaced, too – the one that has the same origins as pulseaudio. And I suspect that I am not the only one who'll gladly take this bargain.
