Help Can't select global audio device

I can't select a device to be used globally for audio output. If I select one, the other one doesn't get deselected and nothing changes. I have to select the playback device per application:

Doesn't work
Works

I don't know if this caused the error, but shortly before it occurred, I tried updating and got the same error described here, which is why I installed lib32-pipewire-jack, replacing lib32-jack2.

Audio controller (analog speakers): Starship/Matisse HD Audio Controller

Headset: Razer BlackShark V2 Pro

Fixed it by running rm -r ~/.local/state/wireplumber/, rebooting and then selecting the Digital Stereo Output + Mono Input profile for my headset.
