Hi there, I just acquired myself the Sennheiser Momentum 4, mainly for using while communting + work. But figured i’d try them out for some gaming too. They work just fine when watching YT or any video, but when I launch a game the audio quality changes significantly. I have no idea how or why its doing it, nor how to fix it. I’ve tried all of these different audio profile options, but all of them make the audio either distorted, weak, or make it sound like the audio is trapped inside a room… Anyone know how to go about this? Audio works fine with my normal non-wireless headset.

My system is running Bazzite.

Appreciate any pointers to how to resolve this.

Thank you for the info. I won’t need the mic, so I’ll have a look at what I can tweak to prevent this 👍

Iirc there’s a setting for Wireplumber (in case you’re using PipeWire) to disable that behaviour when a BT mic is being picked up

Can you tell me what that setting is? I have the same issue as OP

edit: i think it’s this

bluetooth.autoswitch-to-headset-profile = { description = "Whether to autoswitch to BT headset profile or not" type = "bool" default = true

Edit: for those looking at this thread changing that true to false works, although you do need to restart the computer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
