Subject: [PATCH] pipewire: Don't mark a device disconnected if
 pw_stream_dequeue_buffer fails.

Apparently this _can_ happen under load, or maybe some other weird condition.

Hopefully this will encourage PipeWire to fire output_callback again, and
we'll just try again later.

Reference Issue #14916.
