Well initially, I solved my problem with Wine/WinAMP by ripping out
pipewire and re-installing pulse, but this then broke other things I
wanted to use, so I put pipewire back, gave up on Wine/WinAMP and
configured Audacious to look like WinAmp.  So I've worked around that
issue, and I am using 24.04 at this point.  But still pulseeffects
doesn't work, not even with pulse-pipewire installed.  Only reason I
have not abandoned Ubuntu in favor of Debian is Debian's requirement
that everything being signed, and given that I'm running self compiled
kernels, running VM with vGPU pass-through, etc, that's just too much
pain to work around, and it also makes using PPAs difficult.  But I'm
getting really frustrated with the effort it is requiring just to keep a
functional system and now that Ubuntu is abandoning X11, and Wayland
doesn't network properly, switching to a different distro may become
mandatory.

Title:
  PipeWire Buffer Underruns with Wine

Status in pipewire package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  This is similar to bug #1929237 but with a different source and since
  this involves pulse-pipewire it may be related to that module.

  I am SO FRUSTRATED with Ubuntu, seems every release just breaks more
  stuff.  I HAD Pulse Audio working perfectly, no matter what source, no
  matter how loaded, no stuttering, simply had to adjust some buffer
  sizes up from the ridiculous defaults.

  Now WinAmp under Wine sounds like shit, stutters horridly, and there
  seems to be no decent documentation for the new disaster known as
  Pipewire.  Didn't think anyone could possibly write code more buggy
  than Poettering but someone had to come along and prove me wrong.

  Can someone tell me where to adjust buffer sizes in pipewire to stop
  this GawdAweful Stuttering?
