I tried replacing pipewire with pulseaudio by issuing "sudo dnf swap pipewire pulseaudio" but that failed because package "mutter" requires pipewire, I have no idea what that is, and mutter can't be uninstalled because it wants to uninstall "gnome-shell" which is not allowed.

"mutter" is basically the rendering engine for "gnome-shell" which explains the dependencies.  pulseaudio is deprecated now, pipewire is what should be used going forward.
Pipewire doesn't work. It was videos not playing without audio muted that started this thread. And from what I've seen on the net there is potentially a lot of manual configuration required to get pipewire to work, so my view on what I'm seeing is pipewire is not exactly stable.

Clearly pipewire *is* working for the vast majority of people with no configuration required. I didn't even notice the transition. If you look online, you are most likely going to find the people that are having trouble because all the ones that are working have no reason to post. And often the reason it's not working is because of messing with the configs.

I also can't remove pulseaudio because pulseaudio-module-bluetooth want to remove Gnome-shell.

Considering that I have gnome-shell installed without that package, it's not actually required. You need to look at the dependency messages to see what's causing the problem.
