Wait, if I have a bluetooth headset, I have to drop the audio quality down to potato levels to have a mic? How is that a thing in 2022?

dnf keeps three versions of the kernel installed by default, this is probably a conflict with the two versions that are left over from Fedora 35

Its almost certainly the gnome software manager being gnome and just showing the package names being removed and not showing that its older versions of the kernel because showing package details in your software manager is bad UX

I don't understand, if I connect this headset to my phone or set up a Windows machine, will it also sound like garbage if I try to use the mic? Something doesn't add up here

wait, you're right, it doesn't work on my phone. my phone also resorts to garbage codecs when the mics are enabled?! what the hell?

I think a lot of people just haven't noticed before because they were only using the microphone to make normal phone calls and phone call quality was crap until recently.

It has to do with the amount of bandwidth they're allowed to send out iirc I ran into that trying to find a Bluetooth headset for my ps5.... The ones that sound good are basically using WiFi chiplets in the usb adapter to get around it

The ones that sound good are basically using WiFi chiplets in the usb adapter to get around it i mean, the total bandwidth is plenty, but the defined profile for the purpose hasn't been updated to use better codecs/bitrates (garbage sbc still the baseline). probably because defining a good one would involve agreeing on a codec, and all parties seem pretty invested in nickle-and-diming over licenses. in a sane world it'd all be opus.

the bluetooth situation isn't really linux specific -- it's an issue with the profiles supported by most devices. pipewire is a must regardless, but you still gotta find a device with the right profiles msbc is the baseline profile that supports both sink and source but sounds like trash. it's pretty much the only profile you're guaranteed to find everywhere. next up you have aptx (qualcomm), which doesn't sound terrible, but has no support for being an audio source, only a sink. the moment you try to use it as a source, the device will drop out of the profile to one that supports being a source. past aptx, you have aptx-hd, which ups the quality of aptx, but behaves the same with regard to being sink only. similar to aptx, is ldac (sony). ldac is arguably the best quality profile and in theory supports being used as either a sink or source, but I've never actually seen a device that supports being an ldac sink. (I've also only used cheapo ldac devices, and never a nice set of sonys). finally, the only profile I've found that actually works on a real world device without going to poo poo is aptx-ll (low latency). it was apparently really short lived, and only a handful of devices seem to support it. of the tens of bluetooth headsets I've purchased trying to understand why in 202x I had to deal with trash audio calls, only the Avantree Aria Pro has been usable.

bluetooth headsets are so grandpa-unfriendly. Hold the power button down for 3 seconds until you hear two chimes, then release, in order to turn on. Hold it for 10 seconds until you hear three chimes, in order to dump all configuration and go into pairing mode. Then go into the sound settings panel for your OS and ensure the correct sound sink is selected. Alternatively, just plug in the wired headset to the front of the computer and it just works.

It has nothing to do with licensing. Some stuff like aptx ll may break the specs to do it but it's not generally supported.
