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
