           Summary: TOZO-A1 earbuds reconnect to Bluetooth in different
                    mode sometimes
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: plasmashell
      Version First 6.3.5
       Reported In:
          Platform: Arch Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Bluetooth widget
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: sharif.haa...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
I have some cheap earbuds (TOZO-A1 [1]) that sometimes reconnect in some kind
of low-energy mode. The pitch of the sound is lower and it cuts out every few
seconds. The way to fix it to is to disconnect and forget the earbuds, then
immediately repair them.

Obviously I would prefer if this didn't happen in the first place. But that
might be some kind of upstream issue with the driver that you can't do anything
about.

Absent that, it would be nice to have a reset button to click which will
automatically do what I described. Ideally, it would combine forgetting the
thing clicked on, then it would pull up the pairing dialogue. It would be also
cool for it to somehow highlight the device being re-paired, but I'm not sure
how realistic it is in the implementation.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a pair of TOZO-A1 earbuds to a KDE desktop.
2. Disconnect and reconnect it. You may have to try this a few times for this
behavior to occur. It does not seem to depend on charge or any other observable
property.
3. Listen to your new lo-fi, chopped and screwed filter on any sound playing on
 your computer.

OBSERVED RESULT
Normal sound

EXPECTED RESULT
Low-pitched sound that clips every few seconds
