Pipewire is not just for audio, it's also used for video capture
(that's why xdg-desktop-portal needs it, and the same is probably true
for other applications).
To disable the audio side of Pipewire, my understanding is that it should
be sufficient to remove pipewire-pulse, pipewire-alsa, pipewire-jack
and libspa-0.2-bluetooth, while leaving pipewire and wireplumber installed.
