I have read this article: https://blogs.gnome.org/uraeus/2020/09/04/pipewire-late-summer-update-2020/ Looks like pipewire is now the focus and promises a lot! could it bring the solution to this issue in the near future too? Looks like there is also some work done here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/227 Good news. Updates from pipewire changelog: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/blob/master/NEWS --- omitted lines --- - Device support - Bluetooth now supports additional codecs: LDAC, AptX and AptX HD. LDAC is known to not work very well yet. --- omitted lines --- Fedora 34 could move to pipewire by default, some testing still ongoing/needed. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/ZWIX7EQG6EHXVGJBENN6JH3XGYLX3FTW/ But possible to test in fedora rawhide. I will try pipewire 0.3.18 once available on fedora-testing 33, then will comment here. Created attachment 1750144 [details]
headset with microphone working on pipewire 3.20
pipewire 3.20 resolves the support for linux bluetooth headset.
today I tested pipewire-pulseaudio 3.20 and looks like everything is resolved for bluetooth support. Attached screenshot. So if everything goes well and Fedora replaces pulseaudio with pipewire: we can consider this as resolved. https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/release-notes/issue/611 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1906086 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DefaultPipeWire https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/tags/0.3.20 *** Bug 1909976 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** In my case (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1909976), the mic is still not recognized as input device. I tried the f34 srpm since the volume keys do not work for me in f33 pipewire. @Basil, are you able to change the profile of the bluetooth devices in sound settings or pavucontrol? You have to change to some profile that allows mic, example hsp/hfp... Created attachment 1759182 [details]

I am able to change the profile. But hsp is missing which I think is needed for the mic. I added the screen shot. Since the mic of other hardware already works with pipewire, maybe this issue is specific to my headset? Although this works fine in android. $pactl list sources Source #65614 State: SUSPENDED Name: bluez_output.A8_99_DC_11_1B_72.a2dp-sink.monitor Description: Monitor of SOUNDPEATS Truengine 3 SE Driver: PipeWire Sample Specification: s16le 2ch 48000Hz Channel Map: front-left,front-right Owner Module: 4294967295 Mute: no Volume: front-left: 54089 / 83% / -5.00 dB, front-right: 54089 / 83% / -5.00 dB balance 0.00 Base Volume: 65536 / 100% / 0.00 dB Monitor of Sink: bluez_output.A8_99_DC_11_1B_72.a2dp-sink Latency: 0 usec, configured 0 usec Flags: HARDWARE DECIBEL_VOLUME LATENCY Properties: api.bluez5.transport = "" api.bluez5.profile = "a2dp-sink" api.bluez5.codec = "sbc" card.profile.device = "1" api.bluez5.address = "A8:99:DC:11:1B:72" device.id = "89" device.description = "SOUNDPEATS Truengine 3 SE" node.name = "bluez_output.A8_99_DC_11_1B_72.a2dp-sink" factory.name = "api.bluez5.a2dp.sink" priority.driver = "1010" priority.session = "1010" node.pause-on-idle = "false" factory.id = "8" device.api = "bluez5" media.class = "Audio/Sink" node.driver = "true" node.latency = "512/48000" factory.mode = "merge" audio.adapt.follower = "" library.name = "audioconvert/libspa-audioconvert" object.id = "78" client.id = "30" Formats: pcm It seems some changes have been made. I updated my system and built https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/pipewire/0.3.22/7.fc34/src/pipewire-0.3.22-7.fc34.src.rpm I can finally choose the HSP profile. The mic works but audio output is garbled. I can hear only noise. My issue is now similar to https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/503 Other profiles still work with great audio output quality but without mic input.
