What’s the best way to install App Man, direct or via distrobox?
I've created KDE Vault and made a directory inside it. I use this directory as a $HOME for distrobox. So, only single directory is encrypted. If you care about encryption, there is a way to LUKS-encrypt /home, but it's a hack and should not be done unless you understand what you do. And of course, things may break in the future.

Disable bad audio device and reset crackling sound
Another issue I saw in 3.5 and before was crackling sound (in some games), after sleep/resume. I saw this in Elden Ring and couple of other games. Looks like resetting pipewire program seems to fix this issue. You may have to add a terminal program to steam, switch to "Nested Desktop" or use decky plugin to execute following bash commands.
