Try setting "export PIPEWIRE_LATENCY=2048/48000" before running an audio producing application (from the same shell).
Distortion can sometimes be related to the audio buffers not getting filled in time, so increasing the buffering as above gives it more time to even out. You can try 1024 instead of 2048 too.
There is no doubt a way to set it globally, if it helps.
Good luck!

in reply to doubtingtammy • • •Try checking the sampling rate in your pipewire config. It should be 48000. I don't remember exactly how to set it, check on the arch wiki.
Last time I had issues with digital audio that was it.
