Now the big question is if the update fixes this nasty little bug where no matter what, the audio is muted on login until you mute and unmute. that I had to add a dirty little shell script on startup to fix:

#!/bin/bash
pactl set-sink-mute 0 toggle
pactl set-sink-mute 0 toggle

I was experiencing it with 1.2.3 on Debian Trixie, though I’ve heard of Arch users experiencing it. I’m updating to 1.2.4 right now.
