If can somebody help me thanks

As far as i know pipe wire has been replaced in fedora 35 with wire plumber
I think maybe wire plumber having issues starting or it haven’t installed while installing os that is the reason you are facing audio issue

systemctl --user --now disable pipewire-media-session

Then start

systemctl --user --now enable wireplumber

Just that you not get confused,

In F34 Pipewire has been introduced to Fedora and replaced PulseAudio (there is still a pipewire-pulse integration):
Releases/34/ChangeSet - Fedora Project Wiki
By default Pipewire used pipewire-media-session

Then in F35 pipewire-media-session got replaced with wireplumber:
Changes/WirePlumber - Fedora Project Wiki

To debug/see the status, use:

  • systemctl --user status "pipewire.*"
    if pipewire socket and service active (running) = ok.

  • systemctl --user status "pipewire-pulse.*"
    if pipewire-pulse socket and service active (running) = ok.

  • and last but not least you should see also:
    systemctl --user status wireplumber

Huawei laptop sounds with essx8336 will not work with any linux. Don’t waste the time.

Hi friend.
Thanks, with this steps now the sound works. All i need to do is go to alsamixer and raise the headphones volume, i dont know why the headphones control the pc speaker… but i works.
