The following behaviour stared after the last update I installed.
Here’s the info on my system.
$ uname -a

My system has an AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT video card. The monitor is uses a DisplayPort connection, which also carries the audio output.
Intermittently, the audio drops out after a suspend, and if I look at “Sound Settings” I see that the motherboard’s audio controller has been selected. The DisplayPort output is listed as available, but if I select it I get no sound, and “Test Speakers” does not show any speakers.
Running the following command temporarily fixes the problem:
$ systemctl --user restart pipewire pipewire-pulse wireplumber
If I run “wpctl status” before and after the suspend, then in the failing case I see the following difference.

One other thing that seems like it could be related. I also have an XBox Elite 2 gaming pad that’s connected by USB. I’ve had a longstanding problem where the pad’s light doesn’t turn on after resuming. In generating logs for this problem, I noticed that almost every time the audio sink is lost, the XBox pad DOESN’T wake up, and every time the auto sink remains, the XBox pad DOES wake up.
Also, if I suspend and then wake up the system after a failure, and the XBox pad light comes on, then the audio works as well.
I’ve looked at the “journalctl” logs for both successful and failing suspend/resume cycles. The relevant sections are below (edited to stay within space limitations). I have the full logs and can provide them if they’ll help. The logs were generated with the following command:
$ sudo journalctl --merge --follow
I trimmed them with this command:
$ grep -iE -e ‘(ACPI|amdgpu|PM:|X-Box|pipewire|wireplumber)’
