Description
I've installed rustdesk on Pop OS. It required manual installation ignoring failed dependencies because it uses pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio is not supported.
rustdesk runs well with pipwire-pulse to include, obviously, audio.
apt complains on initial install and thinks dependencies are broken after manual install where rustdesk is running fine.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the RustDesk installation on Pop!_OS with pipewire-pulse and inspect the Linux package dependency definition referenced by the installer. Done means apt accepts pipewire-pulse as satisfying the audio dependency without broken packages, while RustDesk audio continues to work.
