The next time you hit this issue, please provide the output of these
commands,

$ journalctl --user -u pipewire -u pipewire-pulse -u wireplumber -b
$ pactl list sinks
$ wpctl status
$ pw-cli list-objects Node
$ pw-dump

Since you said you're trying to restart *pulseaudio*, I'm concerned you
might have conflicting sound servers running (although your package list
suggest not), but to be sure,

$ ps aux | grep -E 'pulseaudio|jackd'

Shouldn't report anything (other than grep).

If that doesn't help provide any further clues, debug logging from
Pipewire and friends will be required. For the pipewire daemon in
particular,

$ export DEBUGINFOD_URLS="https://debuginfod.elfutils.org/ $DEBUGINFOD_URLS"
$ timeout 5 strace -f -tt -T -p `pidof pipewire` > pipewire_strace.out
$ timeout 5 perf record --debuginfod -g -p `pidof pipewire`
$ perf report > pipewire_perf.out

If you have custom configuration configuration of Pipewire share that
too. There are reports against your version of Pipewire of the CPU
getting locked when resuming from suspend,

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/3984, and
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/4025

You might try seeing if this can consistently reproduce the issue,

PIPEWIRE_LOG_SYSTEMD=false PIPEWIRE_DEBUG=3 pw-cli -m load-module
libpipewire-module-combine-stream

Title:
  Pipewire uses 100% of a CPU core. Can not connect to pulseaudio.

Status in pipewire package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  pactl commands freeze and don't display anything. pavucontrol tells
  "Establishing connection to PulseAudio. Please wait...". Audio does
  not work in system. This issue is reproduceable sometimes. I don't
  have information on how to give first-aid in this case. I'll just kill
  the process and try to restart pulseaudio.
