ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Alek Evans 2024-05-28 16:57:53 UTC 
I was able to "fix" (by fix I mean continue to update my system so it remains usable) this issue by running the following command (I don't recommend using this unless its a last resort option, because who knows what overwriting files from one package could do):

sudo apt --fix-broken install -f -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite"

Now I'm able to at least complete a system update with:

sudo pkcon update -y

It's not clear where your packages are coming from or what package is clashing with pipewire-bin

Please add output of

`apt-cache policy  pipewire-bin`

`dpkg -S  /usr/share/man/man7/libpipewire-module-access.7.gz`

I'm afraid we don't support third party PPAs
