Why do they even include settings by default which introduce crackling and hissing noises?
I found that even starting with resample.quality = 7
I couldn’t hear any difference, younger people (like teenagers) might be able to distinguish 8-9. Maybe use 8 as a default value?
Did you open a ticket with the Pipewire team?
Thanks for the tip! This is something I overlooked when installing Pipewire.
Thanks for posting! I didn’t even know a setting like this existed until now. Everything sounds a lot better now.

What do you need to do with paprefs? I found that other Pulseaudio related software works pretty well if you have pipewire-pulse installed, e.g. PulseMeeter.

Use PulseMeeter, you can do a simultaneous output with it. It’s basically the Linux version of the VoiceMeeter Banana program for Windows.
FWIW, I get the same error, in text form for discoverability via search engine:
(paprefs:68653): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 07:28:23.188: Settings schema 'org.freedesktop.pulseaudio.module-group' is not installed [1] 68653 trace trap (core dumped) paprefs

But they said it should work better with pulseaudio
However, it works perfectly fine for me on Arch Linux with Pipewire-Pulse. Garuda Linux is pretty similar, so I’d recommend just using Pipewire.
Pipewire-Pulse actually translates API calls to Pulseaudio for Pipewire.

I’ll need to try it out but I don’t have any issue with pipewire
