I've been using Pipewire for over a year now. Both for normal desktop tasks and music production. It's just great. So much better than just Pulseaudio or JACK. And at times even better than these two combined.

I have 4 soundcards present on my system (built-in, external webcam, USB audio interface, USB synthesiser) and Pipewire can handle it all at once.

Bluetooth headphones are also handled well. They connect by default with aptX (A2DP mode) but using KDE tray icon, I can easily change it to full-duplex headset mode with mSBC.

And then I can use (not that I would always want to) any of these devices together (e.g. in a DAW).
