This is a PulseAudio packaging bug.

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2021-02-06 15:31:17 UTC
I'll take a look

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2021-02-06 15:33:21 UTC
fixed in rawhide,

 %changelog
+* Sat Feb 06 2021 Rex Dieter <rdieter> - 14.2-3
+- -utils: move appropriate bash completions here (#1925706)

will likely not do a f33 update just for this, but will be rolled into any future update.

Comment 4 ojab 2021-06-12 05:53:09 UTC
Sorry for late reopen, but completions itself (not symlinks) are still in `/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pulseaudio` file and `pulseaudio` package:
```
$ ls -larth /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pactl 
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Feb  6 18:52 /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pactl -> pulseaudio
$ dnf provides /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pulseaudio
pulseaudio-14.2-3.fc34.x86_64 : Improved Linux Sound Server
Repo        : fedora
Matched from:
Filename    : /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pulseaudio

$ sudo dnf install pulseaudio-14.2-3.fc34.x86_64
Error: 
 Problem: problem with installed package pipewire-pulseaudio-0.3.30-2.fc34.x86_64

  - conflicting requests
(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)
```
thus it still not possible to use `pactl [Tab][Tab]` on the system using pipewire.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '33'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora Linux 35 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2022-12-13.

Fedora Linux 35 is no longer maintained, which means that it
will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we
are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora Linux
please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Note that the version
field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
the version field.

If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against an
active release.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
