        I have linux issues every time I have a “new” machine, and it makes sense. Linux is a volunteer/ opensource project. It isn’t getting chipsets before, and building drivers in advance of hardware releases (at least it mostly isn’t; I understand that some times it does).

        Because of that, the newer your harder, the crappier it works. The longer your hardware has been around, in-general, my experience is that Linux becomes an “it just works experience”.

        Also, fuck you mediatek 7925e.

      try disabling bluetooth power saving

      try libspa-bluetooth if pipewire

      force A2DB profile in pavucontrol or blueman

      make sure you have bluez and bluez-utils?

        Nah. I’m just gonna hope distros once the paper I’m submitting is accepted and I don’t need this machine again. I think I’m going to go fedora so I can stay closer to bleeding edge on the kernel.

      That’s the best thing bluetooth audio can do for you. Much better than anything it does to music.
