    Bluetooth Headset Recognised as Headphone

    I try to connect to a new headset for the first time. There are 2 separate bluetooth drivers were installed when the device is connected, for headphone (no microphone) and for headset (with microphone). The device is only recognised as headphone so the microphone
    is not recognised by the computer, and when I go to the headset driver it says that "device connected: <false>".

    On my other computer (also Windows 10), both drivers are also installed but the device is recognised by both drivers so I can switch between headset and headphone in the output and the headset is connected in the input.

    Bluetooth not recognising headphones

    Bluetooth on my PC recognises, pairs with and works with an ear piece headphone/mic.
    Bluetooth on my Smartphone recognises, pairs with and works with an Ausdom headphone.
    Therefore all hardware works.

    However, PC Bluetooth will not recognise, let alone pair with, Ausdom headphone.

    I have tried re-boots, turning Bluetooth on/off, uninstalling, re-loading drivers, etc. I have run out of ideas.

    Any suggestions please?

    is this just for headphones/headsets or is stereo's listed also?
