Description Michael Traxler 2023-11-22 22:01:51 UTC 
Unfortunately, now (mumble-1.5.517-1.3) can not connect to the pulseaudio-server anymore and is not usable as it is. 
Available connections are: ALSA, Jack, pipewire and portaudio but with none of them I can get any sound in or out of mumble. 
There is no "mumble" in the pavucontrol visible. 

With the snap-version everything still works. https://snapcraft.io/install/mumble/opensuse

Thanks for the comment. Now I understand the issue.
To explain why I was completely confused. This is not an mumble issue, but a tumbleweed-upgrade issue.
I have many tumblweed computers running and many for many years. Over the years pulseaudio was deprecated and pipewire as a standard. But only for new installations of tumbleweed. 
Now, I learned that I have to actively deinstall pulseaudio and install 
pipewire and pipewire and pipewire-pulseaudio. This was not done automatically on my systems. When I do this, then everything is fine again. 

Sorry, again for blaming mumble!
Comment 4 Andreas Stieger 2023-11-23 19:22:57 UTC 
Well it was disabled in the package. Enabling it does not seem to add any run-time dependencies. So why not support it. Please check mumble-1.5.517-197.1 from https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/games:tools/mumble
Comment 5 Michael Traxler 2023-11-25 17:51:31 UTC 
Yes, I can see the pulseaudio again.
But I switched my systems to pipewire in the meantime :-)
Still, if I switch to pulseaudio in mumble, everything still works as expected!
Thank you very much!
