if anyone has a recommendation, would be greatly appreciated. I have tried restarting services, etc. nothing is working, beyond my knowledge, tks for any help.

For me helped:

systemctl --user start pipewire-pulse.service
wait ~30 sec
systemctl --user restart pulseaudio.service

I have created bug-report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pipewire/+bug/1993739

As suggested on this comment on the bug-report created by Vsevolod Gromov, you can add the pipewire-upstream PPA, change to use the jammy distribution and update :

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipewire-debian/pipewire-upstream 
sudo sed -i 's/kinetic/jammy/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pipewire-debian-ubuntu-pipewire-upstream-kinetic.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Then reboot.

This repo will have to be removed once the bug will be fixed, so you can subscribe to be notified of changes on the bug ticket.
