system menu with chooser missing

Description of problem:

After upgrading to 43.2 (43.2-1.fc37) the sound chooser disappeared from the system menu.

43.2-1.fc37

How reproducible:

Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Under 43.1-4.fc37 sound chooser appeared normally
2. Upgraded (https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-f180db07f9)
3. Sound chooser no longer shown.  Output chooser is shown in sound settings.

Actual results:

No sound chooser

Expected results:

Sound chooser should show (and did, before the upgrade)

Seems not quite as reproducible as I thought.  The above was after a reboot following the upgrade.  Subsequently I logged out then back in, and the chooser showed up again.  Another reboot later and it's still showing up as expected.

Then to exercise it some more, I rebooted.  Chooser still shows up.

Then I actually started an app with sound output (music player).  Sound works ok, but once I use the quick settings chooser once, after the sound output is changed the chooser disappears again.

I had previously used it fairly frequently and never encountered this issue.

The dnf upgrade that introduced this regression was:
