    Dear Maintainer,
    There is a problem with Trixie's current Pipewire version.

    * What led up to the situation?
    This issue began when I upgraded to Debian Trixie. It was not present in Bookworm.

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
    ineffective)?
    I attempted the following fixes:

    Made a file in /etc/security/limits.d/50-pw-rlimits.conf
    File Contents:
    @pipewire - rtprio 95
    @pipewire - nice -19
    @pipewire - memlock 4194304

    * What was the outcome of this action?
    The issue remained unaffected.

    * What outcome did you expect instead?
    Not applicable - I was attempting to apply this fix
