    Windows 10- Bluetooth headphones with mic shows up with two options and one sounds terrible 80026e2b-e30e-4f46-87df-26cc5dde1b3f?upload=true.png

    As you can see from the image, my OnePlus Bullets Wireless 2 headphones connect to my PC fine, but when connected i see those two options. The 'Headphone' option sounds worse than my phone no AptX on PC but fine and totally usable. This option does not allow the use of the earbuds mic. To use the headphones mic on a video call, I must use the headset option. This option sounds terrible, it makes them mono instead of stereo, the volume is really quiet. It just sounds worse in other ways too. I don't quite know how to explain sound but this analogy works: Earbuds + Phone AptX = 1080p. Earbuds + PC Headphone = 720p. Earbuds + PC Headset = 240p. When hearing people speak through the headset option it actually hurts my ears. It does not on the headphone option.

    Why is it doing this? Is there a way to make Windows and Bluetooth play nicely together?

    Thank you!

    :)

  3. Bluetooth headset mic does not work with newly built PC

    Recently built a PC with ASRock B550 ITX/ac motherboard. I am using a wireless bluetooth headphones (similar to airpods).

    The sound is great, however, I am unable to record anything through the built-in mic.

    System: Windows 10

    Problem: Connect a bluetooth headset to the PC; The sound works; the mic doesn't work seemingly

    Things I have tried:

    1. Uninstalling and reinstalling Realtek sound drivers
    2. uninstalling and reinstalling bluetooth drivers
    3. Using the same headphones on a laptop - both sound and mic work as expected
    4. Using another pair of bluetooth headphones on my desktop PC - same issue persists
    Above are the main solutions I was able to find online, however, if anyone here has other suggestions, that would be great!

    Thanks!

    Windows 10- Bluetooth headphones with mic shows up with two options and one sounds terrible

    Bluetooth headphone sound volume keeps changing.

    I have a relatively new Bluetooth Pulse Echo headphone set and an Acer Aspire 3 notebook that has Windows 10 O/S. When I use the headphones with the notebook in wireless mode the sound volume alternates between normal and very low. I have run Windows Bluetooth fault finder and disabled sound enhancements to no effect. The headphones work fine in conjunction with my iPad however.
    Could anyone suggest a solution for this problem please?
