We already have to have PipeWire running in GNOME and Plasma for
Wayland sessions, so we can't completely shut it off. However, the
pipewire-pulseaudio package provides a separate set of PulseAudio
services with the same unit names as the ones provided by the
pulseaudio package. Shutting those down would have the same effect for
you.
Well I used to `dnf remove pulseaudio` might be I have to `dnf remove pipewire`,
then.
That being said, I have spoken to a few audio engineers, and basically
none of them use ALSA directly. They can't because ALSA doesn't
support mixing properly, among other things. Most of them use JACK or
PulseAudio, depending on their requirements. PipeWire is intended to
simplify the pro audio case while bringing those benefits to casual
audiophiles who use PulseAudio.
I really doubt that you listen to youtube while creating music. What do
you want to mix? Might be for some exotic JACK setup.
