Use pactl instead of pacmd

The pacmd command doesn't work on systems using Pipewire's Pulseaudio server.
Instead of the expected output, pacmd returns the following:

No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.

Using pactl instead avoids this problem and works as expected when using Pipewire's pulseaudio server.
