    Windows 11 forcing my headphones to telephone quality


    I updated to windows 11 and now my headphones only work in telephone quality with microphone enabled. If the microphone is disabled it goes back to high quality, is there a way to use both microphone and headphones at high quality as it was in windows 10?

    :)

    Bluetooth Headset Forced to Telephone Quality

    I recently obtained a Skullcandy Hesh2 Headset. After many attempts to connect it to my laptop (so many attempts.) I had finally gotten it working. My only issue now, is that it is being forced to play sound in "1 channel, 16 bit, 8000 Hz (TELEPHONE QUALITY,)
    With a grayed out box, so I can not change it. Any fixes?
