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.
You should consider increasing your pipe wire buffer size or time quantum.
You can use pw-top to see if you’re falling behind processing frames perhaps because you’re not able to meet the configured latency requirements, causing silence to come out when you’ve got too many requests.
I will say there’s a lot of Bluetooth stack under your audio stack, so there’s a whole myriad of possibilities here.
Nothing to see, this was during the weird sound.
I’m not sure if it is an issue on the PC end or the headset end.
