    Audio muted in other apps while using bluetooth headphones


    I have a W11 issue started with W10 and over a year ago, HP laptop. I have it connected to Bluetooth headphones or earbuds that have a microphone. This has happened with multiple devices: Samsung buds, Marley headphones, MPOW headphones, all wireless and with mic.The scenarios:I pause Spotify and WMP to listen to an audio msg from the WhatsApp desktop app. When I am done listening to the audio and minimize the WhatsApp window, the other 2 apps sound is muted when I resume playing either one or both. I can't hear anything until I switch the sound output from the BT device to the PC or monitor

    Can't Mute Bluetooth headphones

    Like the title says, I cannot mute my Bluetooth headphones, but only my Bluetooth headphones. Whenever I try to mute, whether with my keyboard or with the sound panel, it would not let me mute it. It will flash to 0 for a split second but then bounce back
    to whatever it was. If I try to manually drag the slider down, it would go to 0 but as soon as I let go, it will jump up to 1. This is only happening to my Bluetooth headphones when I use plugged in headphones it works. Thanks ahead of time!
