Greetings, everyone,

Yesterday, while updating my system, the power went out, and the process did not complete. Initially, the system could not get into the gnome-shell. I could solve this by completing the update by booting it into the text terminal.

Power failing during an update/install is not good.

When I could finally use the gnome-shell, the audio did not work. Switching to Pulseaudio can solve the problem, but I noticed that Pipewire config file broke, it was empty (I thought this was the reason Pipewire was not working).
I installed back again Pipewire, and DNF created a config file by default. When rebooting and logging back, it did not work either, a solution I found was running Pipewire from the terminal and specifying the config file with

pipewire -c /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf

And it made audio work back again (finally!). Still, I would like to know if it is possible to get it running just when logged in. Any help or comments are welcomed.

There may be many other configuration glitches.  Even if there are
only a few issues left by the power failure, you can't know if the next
problem is due to a bug in the software or a side-effect of the power
failure. 

It is far better if you can be confident that your system is properly
configured, which could require a full install.  Debian's package
manager does have a "configuration still needed" status for packages
that were installed by didn't complete post-install configuration.  Maybe
a dnf guru knows of something similar for Fedora.
