So, what _does_ it show now? Post the full output, there's a bunch of stuff which might give some clues.

Whoa, there's no need to show your home address to everyone. I'm surprised your hostname is presented as an FQDN (though it's not related to pw issue)
Is it a new installation? Did you have working alsa before going for pipewire?
What kernel are you using? Are snd modules there?
Does aplay -l show any deices?
Is your user in audio group?
And what is this thing: Schein-Ausgabe?

Hello,
Yes, this is a new installation. I didnt have working alsa before going to pipewire.
Iam using a self configured kernel, its the version 6.12. The snd modules are enabled in the kernel configs but shows no output.
shows no devices. Yes, my user is in the audio group. Schein-Ausgabe is german and means something like fake output. |

I see. Well, how did you configure your kernel?
I start with defconfig and then disable stuff I know I don't need. You can try to trim the fat by rebuilding kernel again with localdefconfig once you have everything running properly.
Does lspci -k show your audio devices and its driver?
Audio stuff should be built as modules by default, so it's weird that it doesn't show up in lsmod. Is udev running? I think this is what loads modules for detected hardware...
Can you grep .config for _SND_ to verify whether those drivers are built as modules or statically?

I just used the standard one and enabled some stuff i need and dissabled stuff i dont need, but i didnt really go through it, i just dissabled stuff i saw while enabling the needed stuff.
lspci -k shows the audio devices and drivers (allthough not my headphones and such). Systemrc tells me if i whant to start udev that it has already been started.
grep "CONFIG_SND=" /usr/src/linux/.config
grep "CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL=" /usr/src/linux/.config
grep "CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=" /usr/src/linux/.config
grep "CONFIG_SND_PCM=" /usr/src/linux/.config
grep "CONFIG_SND_TIMER=" /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_SND=y
CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL=y
CONFIG_SND_PCM=y
CONFIG_SND_TIMER=y |
