Hey guys, I just wanted to post a fix in case anyone has this issue.
I updated my Fedora install yesterday and started having issues with my Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones. Whenever I connected my headphones, it would crash Gnome Desktop and log me out.
I was able to trace to issue to wireplumber and fixed the issue by switching to pipewire.
sudo dnf swap wireplumber pipewire-media-session
I was on wireplumber 5.13, so maybe later versions will fix the issue.
Everything seems stable now that I ran that command.
Here’s the article I found:
Hope this helps someone with issues.

Was having this same issue and your solution worked perfect, thank you!
Such a weird behavior lol.
@Josh_Voyles same issue here with Jabra headphone, thanks for sharing your solution !
Have a good one
I was having the same issue with my Nothing Ear(2), thank you so much for the fix!
I’m glad it’s helping a few out!
Looks like the bug has also been reported. You can track the status here:

thanks for sharing this resolution. I will try this as well.
other option:
I have the same issue. I rollback to version 0.5.11 using this command
$ sudo dnf downgrade wireplumber
and then version lock wireplumber using these:
$ sudo dnf versionlock add ‘wireplumber-0.5.11*’
$ sudo dnf versionlock add ‘libwireplumber-0.5.11*’
It looks like a fix has been merged. So, I’m sure we’ll see it in our Fedora repo soon.
