Unable to play online videos after F40 upgrade

Tried firefox, brave, chromium, slimjet. Videos not loading from youtube, odysee, rumble.

Works perfectly with F39.

Update:

What a mess!

Related to pulseaudio. Videos are loading after removing it.
But, back to case one with No more SPDIF passthrough after upgrading to F40

2nd update, the day after:

For browsers to be able to play videos, one must execute those commands after boot:

systemctl --user restart pipewire
systemctl --user restart pulseaudio
systemctl --user restart wireplumber
