PipeWire 0.3.77 (2023-08-04)
This is a quick bugfix release that is API and ABI compatible with previous 0.3.x releases.
Highlights
- Fix a bug in ALSA source where the available number of samples was miscaluclated and resulted in xruns in some cases.
- A new L permission was added to make it possible to force a link between nodes even when the nodes can’t see each other.
- The VBAN module now supports midi send and receive as well.
- Many cleanups and small fixes.

All of the following is speculation on my side and just stated as fact for easier reading / writing.
Because it did not allow for the functionality that exposed those bugs (as in PulseAudio provided features that should work according to documentation, but didn’t)
Because these bugs got fixed after PulseAudio exposed them.

Have it your way dude, I ditched PulseAudio for PipeWire over two years ago (see my post at https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/kufrmu/pipewire_audio_is_so_good_now/) and never looked back. But I strongly believe that PulseAudio, despite its flaws, was an overall gain for Linux audio and I dislike people bashing the work of others.
This is what makes me so disappointed in a lot of discourse about software. Like technical discussions should always be respectful of others and their (free as in freedom, and often free as in beer) work.
