Reproduction steps
Doesn't reproduce on my own machine. But here's what I did:
- Join a voice channel (the bug might have occurred here)
- Start a screen share (or here)
- Chose my only screen
Observed behaviour
I just had a weird bug where I joined a voice channel and now I have a new mysterious audio device called Fluxer Direct Capture Audio and it's made default (as KDE shows), so apps output their sound to it. I had to reverse the setting back to Built-in Audio Analog Stereo to get my sound back.
I didn't even get to hear people yet, but at least 1 person has heard what I said in the microphone, so voice calls are partially tested.
I also have two of those "Fluxer Direct Capture Audio" devices right now, one with 95% volume and the other with 100% volume.

Evidence
On screenshot, I already returned the default audio output choice back to normal. As for the transcript, I only launched with --ozone-platform=x11 to make user interface appear in the window, otherwise it's just the background color. And this isn't specific to Fluxer, I had to do the exact same thing for a Discord client when using the combination of KDE Wayland + nouveau (community driver for old NVidia graphics cards like mine that isn't known for its quality, though it's pretty cool and even supports Vulkan 1.2 on my GPU)
