I'm not up on the intricacies of using pipewire as an audio manager, but this looks suspicious:

aRts has no specific support for pipewire that I'm aware of, so it probably needs the pulseaudio replacement stack to be working. Maybe troubleshoot this (with the aid of your distro, since it isn't a TDE issue) first, and see if getting that service running helps?
