--- Comment #40 from John <[email protected]> --- When I installed Fedora 43 KDE back in February this issue was not present on a fresh install, however it started as soon as I updated the system and has been present since then (Currently using up to date Fedora 44, KDE connect 26.04.2). The issue was also present on CachyOS. It doesn't matter which bluetooth headphones I use or which codec I pick, they all have the issue of extreme crackling/distortion of sound on KDE. Terminating kdeconnectd always fixes it. I'm using a bluetooth dongle on a desktop PC. The brand name on it is tp-link. Motherboard is MSI MPG X570 GAMING PLUS AM4 with Ryzen 5 3600 Output of "hciconfig -a": Type: Primary Bus: USB BD Address: 00:1A:7D:DA:71:15 ACL MTU: 310:10 SCO MTU: 64:8 UP RUNNING PSCAN RX bytes:2198866 acl:103 sco:0 events:311709 errors:0 TX bytes:143477436 acl:473051 sco:0 commands:139 errors:0 Features: 0xff 0xff 0x8f 0xfe 0xdb 0xff 0x5b 0x87 Packet type: DM1 DM3 DM5 DH1 DH3 DH5 HV1 HV2 HV3 Link policy: RSWITCH HOLD SNIFF PARK Link mode: PERIPHERAL ACCEPT Class: 0x7c0104 Service Classes: Rendering, Capturing, Object Transfer, Audio, Telephony Device Class: Computer, Desktop workstation HCI Version: 4.0 (0x6) Revision: 0x22bb LMP Version: 4.0 (0x6) Subversion: 0x22bb Manufacturer: Cambridge Silicon Radio (10) and "btmgmt info": hci0: Primary controller addr 00:1A:7D:DA:71:15 version 6 manufacturer 10 class 0x7c0104 supported settings: powered connectable fast-connectable discoverable bondable link-security ssp br/edr le advertising secure-conn debug-keys privacy static-addr phy-configuration current settings: powered bondable ssp br/edr le secure-conn Bluetooth version is a little old but it works just fine for me with any hardware I have in any OS I've used, just not with KDE Connect. If I really needed KDE Connect I would just buy a new dongle and see if that helps but for now I have just been content with "sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/kdeconnectd". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
