I’m using Mint, I keep it updated.
I have the Shokz open run pro headset.
When connected to my phone, they work without issue.
When connected to my laptop, they also work without issue.
When connected to both my phone and laptop, I can get good sound from my phone, but the laptop sound starts well but usually within 60s it becomes very unreliable. The sound just doesn’t seem to transfer to the headset.
I don’t know much by way of relevant levers on the Linux side that you could pull that might affect behavior on the headphones side.
If you can disable aptX (on my system, you can see this in the device settings in
pavucontrol) you might get lower-quality but more-reliable sound.
