As detailed in Pipewire documentation [0], the ALSA plugin requires
config files to be symlinked as follow:

```
The plugin will be picked up by alsa when the following files are in /etc/alsa/conf.d/:

/etc/alsa/conf.d/50-pipewire.conf -> /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf.d/50-pipewire.conf
/etc/alsa/conf.d/99-pipewire-default.conf
```

The above symlinks are missing, thus the pipewire device is not properly
detected.

Fix this by creating the required symlinks and installing them in the
pipewire-alsa package.
