Return of ps is this:

Code:

pi          1959    1941  0 19:20 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/pipewire-pulseroot        2977    2879  0 19:20 ?        00:00:00 s6-supervise pulseaudioroot        3680    2977  0 19:20 ?        00:00:02 pulseaudio --system --disallow-exit --exit-idle-time=-1 --disable-shmpi          5111    4136  0 19:25 pts/0    00:00:00 grep --color=auto pulse
pipewire-pulse seems to be running.
I am very surprised to see the result of the "ps -ef" command. Pipewire seems to be running at user level and pulseaudio at system level!

I cannot confirm that this behaviour is normal because I am not in the same configuration that you.

Maybe someone else could comment on whether or not this is normal operation?

For me, pulseaudio don't have to run at system level and I wonder what this command s6-supervise is?

This command comes from the s6 package in Debian. Is there a specific installation that would run this command? Another package?
I think i know where this comes from.... I'm running a Home Assistant Supervised installation on this pi, never thought about that this could interfere with the hdmi audio. Not sure what exactly Home Assistant is doing while starting up, but could be that it starts pulseaudio on system level.
But still, this does not explain why audio via the 3.5 mm audio jack is working fine and hdmi won't make a single sound.
