No sound anywhere regardless of any audio settings

I've just installed bazzite on my desktop and can't get the sound to work at all. I suspect the wrong device is used or something like that but I can't find any way to fix it.

The only possible solution I've found is starting alsamixer from the console and disabling automute (which did nothing for me). The right device would be the HDA Intel PCH (Chip Realtack ALC892) but I have no idea how I get my sound settings to select it as the default audio device.

Edit: I've now found at least a partial solution but I still would like a better one.
The problem is that pipewire has my graphics card hdmi audio set as default and the audio menu doesn't give me the option to switch to my onboard realtek chip.

I was able to force it for now with
wpctl set-default 35
wpctl set-default 35
. It still doesn't allow me to use the audio menu to configure it but at least have sound until it can be fixed for real.
