No, not at all. Pipewire is still experimental. Even its main developer doesn’t feel it will be release-ready until version 1.0, but some distributions adopted it early while it still has a number of bugs to sort out. If you are using Pipewire and encounter an issue that doesn’t occur using ALSA or JACK directly, the problem certainly lies within Pipewire.

The Debian PipeWire Wiki link you posted is out of date and doesn’t work because there are no longer any PipeWire configuration files placed in /etc/pipewire… They are now all placed in /usr/share/pipewire so the command in the Wiki:
# touch /etc/pipewire/media-session.d/with-jack
fails… It need to be updated to:
# touch /usr/share/pipewire/media-session.d/with-jack
The info after that is still correct though as far as preparing and setting dynamic linking… In my experience on a PipeWire test system with 0.3.79 and no jackd installed this allows JACK applications to work without the ‘pw-jack’ wrapper prepended…
I assume it’s still valid for the pipewire version that comes with debian/stable?
Hmmm,
Not sure, it’s so old now that it’s useless but that may be valid info for Debian Bookworm, but almost certainly not for Testing, Sid, or Debian-backports…
