    Is your audio server running? I assume it’s pipewire on Fedora 40.

        This must be a pulse audio command.

        Try reinstalling pipewire using:

        dnf reinstall pipewire

        See if that fixes your problem

                Pipewire-pulse (or whatever the package is called) is the drop-in replacement for pulseaudio that makes apps, that normally use pulseaudio, use pipewire instead. You can’t have both installed. You can have pipewire and pulseaudio installed at the same time but your system can only use one of them at a time.

                Maybe try with kpipewire.

                But also check audio in the kde settings maybe they got misconfigured.
