I had this issue on my Lenovo T460s with Bluetooth pairing of Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones with Bluez 5.59-1.fc34, but the same headphones worked on my XPS 13 9360. The difference? I just did a fresh installation on my Lenovo and tried pairing with Bluez 5.59, whereas the XPS was originally paired with an earlier version of Bluez. This is an issue with Bluez 5.59, where it does not support an A2DP audio profile with new devices. Most of the time, I'd also get the "Connected. Disconnected. Connec-Disconnected", but once in a while, it'd actually connect and stay connected with an HSP/HFP profile (bad audio quality, mono, low 8-16 khz; profile used for Bluetooth phone call modules) instead of a high-quality stereo A2DP profile (with LDAC, AAC, and SBC support). Downgrading to 5.58 on my Lenovo, removing the device, removing /var/lib/bluetooth/*, and rebooting fixed it. (Downgrading and removing the device and restarting Bluetooth might be enough? Not sure.) With Bluez 5.58, the headphones pair and audio works with an A2DP profile once more. Upstream bug: https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/157 Is this the same as bug as bug 1936141? (In reply to Florian Weimer from comment #2) > Is this the same as bug as bug 1936141? It does not look the same as bug 1936141 to me. On the other hand it is the same issue as in https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/157 as far as I can understand. bluez 5.60 has been tagged upstream, fixing the a2dp issue reported in https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/157 I confirm that with bluez 5.60 the problems I mentioned are solved. I confirm that this is fixed in bluez-5.60-1.fc34.x86_64, but I had to stop the bluetooth service, remove /var/lib/bluetooth (as the problem is related to cache files created by a previous version), and then restart the service. |
