I find BT maddening. Sometimes previously-connected devices automatically reconnect, sometimes they need to be forcibly reconnected, sometimes they need to be dropped and re-added...
So anyway.
I bought a pair or earbuds to dedicate to my PC for Zoom calls. Paired fine, but:
* Sometimes you can't hear anything when "Headset" is selected but "Headphones" is
* Sometimes you can't hear anything when "Headphones" is selected but "Headset" is
* Sometimes what I'm hearing turns into a robotic mush
** Sometimes that fixes itself if I swap from "Headset" to "Headphones" or vice versa (But it is embarassing on calls to tell people to stop talking)
** And when I say "sometimes" I mean four or five times in a one hour call
Sometimes - whether I'm on a call, or just sitting here minding my business with the earphones in - they'll just drop and reconnect. (That creates a mess of issues with other software, but one thing at a time...)
I tried unpairing and repairing several times. Then it got to the point where only ONE earpiece would pair - a few times it was just the right, now it's just the left.
So I threw away those ear buds and bought a more expensive pair.
Same f$%!#ing thing.
When I listen to music, my BT speaker never drops, never gives me trouble. But obviously I don't want that for Zoom.
My wired headphones never give me a lick of trouble - but do tether me to my PC.
Before I start deleting stuff willy-nilly in Device Manager, is there anything really to do? Or is that just a function of BT on a three-year-old PC?
