Repair Bluetooth Connectivity

[Mike R]

The solution that worked for me was to remove/reinstall some pipewire packages and enable them on startup:

Code: Select all

sudo apt reinstall pipewire pipewire-bin pipewire-pulse
systemctl --user --now enable pipewire pipewire-pulse

After reboot I removed the old device from the list, scanned again for it, paired, trusted, and then connected.
Said connected but still didn't hear sound, so in "Sound Preferences", on the Output tab, change to the headset, and
Joy.

Along the way I also edited

etc/bluetooth/main.conf
looking for

Experimental = false

change to true then save.
Didn't seem to hurt/harm anything...
