how to stop kmetronome, wireplumber, and pipewire from going zombie state (bookworm)

the title is mostly the issue; I'm using bookworm (D12) and whenever I start kmetronome (now, "drumstick metronome") the moment I quit, all 3 of the above named processes go "D" status; I've tried all of the solutions suggested by google gemini, but nothing seems to work

any and all help is appreciated
