Systemd unit for pipewire is missing on Fedora 35

Hi,

I tried to look how to restart pipewire and according to Troubleshooting · Wiki · PipeWire / pipewire · GitLab there should be a systemd unit.

But in my case there is none:

systemctl status pipewire
Unit pipewire.service could not be found.

I’m using F35 Kinoite, so it’s possible that this is some specific thing on ostree OS.

So what is happening here?

Welcome to ask Fedora.

Try instead:
systemctl --user status pipewire
