[op6-enchilada] Bumpy audio with pipewire

As someone reported in the Mobian room as well: sound works mostly fine via Bluetooth, while on speakers and via wired headphones the sound is "bumpy" like in the video uploaded in qcom-phone-utils!8

My hypothesis at the time was a misconfiguration of the wireplumber device. One possible analysis is described in the related commit message.

My experience tells that switching the Playback device to "Off" and then back to "HiFi quality music" after some tries (and a lot of patience) gets to a normally working audio.

User DTr0y reported, removing pipewire and installing pulseaudio got audio working well, then it's likely a pipewire-related issue.

With some time, we should try and check pipewire (e.g. pwdump or pw-top) for the status when audio is working or not. Few days ago I captured the output of pwdump, maybe those are useful
