How to PERMANENTLY disable Handsfree Telephony for a bluetooth device in Windows 11?

I need to disable Handsfree Telephony to make my Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones work in MS Teams (as resolved in this thread).

But, the setting keeps being enabled again - possibly during reboot or bluetooth re-connection.

Is there a way to PERMANENTLY disable the setting for this device?

Aside: I'm open to a fix in powershell if anyone knows the API calls for toggling the setting based on BT connection trigger.

Handsfree telephony and your phone app

Hi,

I've got a problem with my Hoco S3 headset with "handsfree telephony" enabled. Without this option I cannot use my Hoco S3 microphone, but when this option is enabled I cannot call to someone via "your phone" app because this is not supported for Bluetooth headset. So my question is how can I call to someone via app by using my headset? Or when this app will support Bluetooth headset?
