I think this omission is not on purpose. Its just nobody has been working on it.

I would guess flatpak should grow a `--socket=fallback-pulseaudio` permission that only binds pulseaudio when pipewire is unavailable
and also grow a `--socket=pipewire` permission.

I glanced at the pipewire code and it checks for `/.flatpak-info` on the client pid talking to it to determine if it should have somewhat limited permissions.
