ao_pipewire: test for session to contain audio sinks

The pure presence of PipeWire does not mean that it is actually driving
the audio session. For example it could only be meant for video.

Currently there is no proper API to detect this (see [0]), so we check
for the presence of audio sinks.

As soon as a proper API exists, we should use that.
