Bug description:
  Bluetooth HSP/HFP audio quality is poor on Ubuntu comparative to all
  other major platforms (Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, Android, iOS).

  Modern Bluetooth headsets (such as the Bose QC series headphones, many
  others) are capable of using HFP 1.6 with mSBC 16kHz audio encoding.
  As it currently stands, Ubuntu defaults to only supporting HSP
  headsets using 8kHz CVSD, and is incapable of supporting HFP 1.6 at
  this time.

  The ChromiumOS team recently tackled this issue -
  https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=843048

  Their efforts may assist in bringing this to Ubuntu, however it
  appears that there are quite a lot of differences considering they
  have developed their own audio server solution etc.

  The Bluetooth Telephony Working Group published the HFP 1.6 spec in
  May 2011 -

I can only speak to the one that I linked, but yes it has talk/list
switch. The talk mode is only for talking (the music quality is BAD),
the lisen mode is only for listening (the music quality is good).

I can confirm that the above solution works well. I bought a similar but 
slightly cheaper one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B086L2WNPG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8=1

Basically the dongle pairs directly to your headset and acts as a usb
sound card. By far the easiest solution I've found.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1887796] [NEW] Bluetooth headset cant set output as A2DP sink while using the mic as input device

2020-07-16 Thread Falc
Public bug reported:

I have the popular Sony WH-100XM3 headset.

I can connect to the headset fine using bluetooth. I set the Output
device in Sound Option, there are two configurations A2DP Sink (sounds
great) and HSP/HFP (sounds terrible).

If I set the input device to the headset, it silently switches the
output configuration to HSP/HFP and so the audio sounds terrible.

If I then switch the output configuation back to A2DP sink, the audio
output sounds good again, but then the input device switches to
something else.

So the problem is that I cant use the headset as audio input while
having the good-sounding output configuration.
