[SOLVEDish] MPD: Failed to connect stream: Permission denied

Hi, I'm having problem with MPD and pipewire on my headless server, my setup is:
pipewire-0.3.75-r2 is system-service (USE flag),
wireplumber-0.4.14 is running as root in tmux (I have no clue how to run it as system-service in systemd),
mpd-0.23.12-r2 is running as regular service,
ncmpcpp-0.9.2-r3 is for remotely controlling MPD.
This setup was working until recently, I wasn't using it for some time and I don't know when it broke. Right now I'm getting "ncmpcpp: Connection refused" when trying to connect to it remotely or locally from regular user, when running ncmpcpp as root I can see my playlist, but it is constantly paused. I tried to run mpd (mpd --no-daemon --stderr) as root and user, and I got this error: "exception: Failed to open "PipeWire Output" (pipewire); Failed to connect stream: Permission denied". I checked pipewire with mpv as regular user and sound is working.

@EDIT
I did some downgrading and kernel 6.1.28 let me connect to MPD, but still no playback.

@EDIT
I realized that I really don't have a good reason to use pipewire, so I switched to ALSA an MPD is working.
