Pipewire and wireplumber problems

[Dave Bullet]

I don't know if I should post here or on gitlab...

I'm trying to run "wpctl" to check status of wireplumber / pipewire and getting this error output

[pipewire@archdebug ~]$ wpctl status
C 15:35:41.164930            wp-core (null):(null):(null): wp_core_constructed: assertion 'self->pw_context' failed
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I've tried as root - same. pipewire is a user in a custom pipewire plus root group.

I'm running pipewire and wireplumber on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ with ArchlinuxARM (latest distro / upgrades applied).

All user systemd services are running fine (pipewire.socket, pipewire, wireplumber). Processes are running as root

The pipewire process does have this error in the log (journald)

I am not running Xterm/11 and I had thought I'd commented that out.

I am running default .conf files (apart from the comment out above in an attempt to fix the error). installation was via pacman. Packages:
