I had never heard of Pipewire until  I upgraded to Kubuntu 22.04. I'll probably mess it all up because I'm a tinkerer and wondering what the sounds from my monitor speakers sound like.  Actually the thunk strikes and I'll put in that Fedora KDE system and try there. Peter On 10/03/2023 12:26,

I would have thought it highly likely that since pipewire is now a thing, pulseaudio would no longer be setup on any distro released in the last couple of years. And that’s the reason why pavucontrol doesn’t see any devices, it needs the pipewire sink/connector/driver installed so that application

Not getting anywhere. Making -progress. I used a different HD and put Fedora-KDE version on it so that next time my S-in-law comes he can play on that and not muck up my system. It showed a number of outputs and kept jumping between them  until I got something up and was able to click the radio
