    Yes. and why it’s wildly complicated on Windows machines where you have an audio output device for headphones and for headset, and once something starts using the mic the output device itself changes.

    So joining team chat in a game will either make audio sound horrible or break it entirely if you had specified the output device instead of using default device.

      How in the fuck is bluetooth even a competing standard? If it’s “good enough” than so is SD video and VHS tapes.

      Bluetooth turns twenty-six this year, maybe we’ll be closer to good integration once it hits it’s thirties.

        There’s a lot of things that make the Bluetooth experience better… it’s just almost all focused on mobile phones, maybe apple laptops if you stay in their walled gardens, but definitely not stock windows.

        I say stock because if you do use windows and want to use Bluetooth you can improve things with a third party driver https://www.bluetoothgoodies.com/a2dp/ it’s still not great but at least you can use better codecs than default
