Thank you for your response Konrad. I followed the docs for replacing pulseaudio with pipewire which worked well. Now the bluetooth app offers more codecs to use. I figured out "mSBC" offers the best quality. Compared to A2DP it still sucks and sounds horrible. You dont want to accept this if you bought a bluetooth headset for 250 EUR with brilliant audio capabilities. So I ended up to use a separate mic from my webcam. Hope this will be fixed soon.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
@Christian, @Konrad, Ubuntu 22.04 has this fixed. It was fixed in PulseAudio 15, run `pulseaudio --version` to see the version you are running. But HSP sound is still much worse than A2DP sound e.g. if you listen to music. HSP is still mono and limited to a bandwidth of 8 kHz. The scope of this bug was only to support WBS in the Linux stack, so improve HSP sound from even more terrible 4 kHz bandwidth to what it is now. The current limitations are with the Bluetooth specification and the limited data rates that bluetooth offers, so PipeWire is not going to help with that. If you want better two-way sound your options currently are using a wire, or using a proprietary wireless transmission (search for gaming headsets) or Bluetooth codec (there is the FastStream codec, but supporting headsets are extremely rare, I couldn't find anything with a proper mic that I would consider for video calls). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

I've also got an Avantree DG80 as a workaround and I can confirm it works with my Trekz OpenComm headset. It supports sounds up to 8 kHz (corresponding to mSBC with a 16 kHz sampling frequency) with the mic enabled, while anything connected directly to Linux bluetooth only goes up to 4 kHz in HSP/HFP mode (CVSD).

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
Hi everyone, small progress report : I tried the pipewire trick and it didn't work out for me, while it initially seemed to work: auto switch to the HSP/HPF profile didn't work and after a manual switch the headset would drop out during a conversation. I reverted to pulseaudio and invested a bit more time, now I am _almost_ there : I had to add the following to ~/.config/pulse/default.pa .include /etc/pulse/default.pa .nofail unload-module module-bluetooth-policy .fail .ifexists module-bluetooth-policy.so load-module module-bluetooth-policy auto_switch=2 .endif .ifexists module-bluetooth-discover.so load-module module-bluetooth-discover .endif to get the autoswitch to work. I am happy to report that in slack (from snap) the audio now behaves just right and friends tell me I no longer sound like a robot. Unfortunately this still doesn't work with zoom and there seems to be multiple issues. They probably come from zoom itself but I am unsure what to report to them. according to https://gavv.github.io/articles/pulseaudio-under-the- hood/#autodetecting-properties it should be possible to make pulseaudio understand that it has to switch profiles by changing /usr/share/applications/Zoom.desktop and adding Telephony to the categories. I have not been able to make this work without auto_switch=2 Here are two scenarios that fail: after a fresh boot (so all the stars are aligned), start zoom, create a new meeting, start the recording, say a few words, stop the recording, stop the meeting, open the resulting audio or video file the sound is bad when it is expected to be good. After a fresh boot (so all the stars are aligned), start zoom, go to settings-> audio, after doing this my headset is non functional and I must shut it down and start it back up to restore functionality. can someone help me determine what zoom is doing wrong ? I will also try a few other apps in the coming weeks -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
After two years of waiting on this, and seeing how disappointing the progress has been both in Ubuntu and PulseAudio, I am happy to say that I believe PipeWire is the future and I would hope that Ubuntu moves forward with switching to PipeWire (while keeping PulseAudio as an alternative). I was able to follow these directions to switch to PipeWire and have found it to be acceptable with Bose NC700s and mSBC/HFP: From: https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/ofdalv/replaced_pulseaudio_with_pipewire_on_popos_2104_i/h4c5p6u/ # Add ppa for latest build sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pipewire-debian/pipewire-upstream && sudo apt update # Install components sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-pipewire pipewire-media-session libspa-0.2-bluetooth libspa-0.2-jack pipewire pipewire-audio-client-libraries # If you get unmet dependencies, you can run: sudo apt --fix-broken install # Reload new services systemctl --user daemon-reload # Disable PulseAudio service systemctl --user --now disable pulseaudio.service pulseaudio.socket # If you update from previous version of PopOS systemctl --user mask pulseaudio # Enable Pipewire services systemctl --user --now enable pipewire pipewire-pulse # Enable Pipewire media session systemctl --user --now enable pipewire-media-session.service # I ran into an issue with a couple dependencies and needed to do the following before everything worked: sudo apt install libspa-0.2-bluetooth libfdk-aac2 systemctl --user restart pipewire.service pipewire-pulse.service Hope this helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

@Oscar That was never an issue: A2DP always sounded decent. The problem with Linux Bluetooth headset support comes when you want decent quality while listening and recording sound, you know e.g. during video calls. Am Di., 30.

I think the problem was in the headphones. I found I was having trouble on my phone as well. I contacted Sony support and they had me try a soft reset of the headset, which seems to have restored function. I am still getting bad mic sound on bluetooth, but I think it is just the low quality sound on this thread and not the completely muffled sound I was getting before.

I can't seem to get the DG80 working correctly under PopOS 20.10. It works great for listening to music (though that worked directly on bluetooth without issues) but I can't seem to get the correct mode for talk. Since you say you have success with it, I will play with it some more before returning it and see if I can get it set up properly. It is probably some kind of configuration thing on my end, but I was hoping it would solve my microphone problems. As it stands, my best option is using the headset with my phone for Teams calls--the sound works perfectly there.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
I installed pulseaudio-modules-bt and it does give some new options for sound output and possibly better sound, but microphone sound quality was still iffy. Recorded sound on Audacity seemed better and was slightly louder (according to the DB meter), but a test call on Microsoft Teams was still muffled and unintelligible. I have ordered a Avantree DG80 dongle (which makes the bluetooth connection externally and appears to linux as usb audio) and will hopefully be able to continue working with that, but I would love to see this problem resolved in pulseaudio. For the record, I am using a Sony WH-1000XM4 headset on PopOS 20.10 running on a System76 Darter Pro. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
I understood that they need to deal with new codec inclusion, via GStreamer o other libs, and that writing code and manage a community is not a simple task. Said that, IMHO there are three big question with bluetooth and PulseAudio: 1. in these days we (probably most of us) are always on web conferencing and we need good audio quality in both direction, mic and speaker. Current bluetooth headsets are capable of using Bluetooth Profile HFP 1.6 with mSBC 16kHz audio encoding, this standard permit high quality voice conferencing and It was made in 2011...9 year ago. 2. Bluetooth Profile A2DP for listening only (music...) There are a lot of codec for high quality listen audio, es. SBC-XQ, aptX-LL, aptX-HD, aptX Voice and FastStream 3. Support for new version of Bluetooth / Profile. Ex #1 BT 5.3 with LC3 (Low Complexity Communications Coded (LC3)) codec. Ex #2 BT Profile HFP 1.8 with codec selection and Enhanced Voice Recognition Activation.

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
That one was a good one. Bluetooth gadget makers seem to be allergic to exactly specify what their gadgets really support. That's on one side extremely understandable, it would be mostly not understandable for humans, the Bluetooth standards involved are arcane, and even relatively experienced computer scientists that are not BT experts can be surprised from time to time, even if they tried to make themselves clever about BT. OTOH, it makes buying Bluetooth headsets slightly a risky business. Then it does not help that most host implementations are kind of not talkative about the connection that they negotiated with the head set. (I mean figuring out which codecs your headset supports involves capturing the traffic and analyzing that, that's state of the art in 2020 on Windows. Now that's user friendliness taken to the extreme, wouldn't you say? Now on Linux, bluez includes an utility that can tell you more about your headset. For whatever reason, Ubung don't include avinfo in their packages, I mean why burden users with details about their headsets?) So my process is sadly as follows: - Look at your headsets (choose BT 4.1/4.2 devices that usually makes sense), read reviews - Order it online - Test if I'm happy with it (on linux, avinfo can tell you about codecs supported, but connecting it to an Android device, doing an Internet based video call, and asking the other side how if you sounded "okay" is usally okay. Bad BT is usually identified as "you sounded really bad, like from the last century"). - If the headset is not okay, send it back. Sadly, the reality of not complete spec sheets on devices makes it basically impossible to know what you are buying beforehand, in general. Andreas Am Mi., 18.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
@63 - your headset likely doesn't support mSBC (16 KHz), only CVSD (8KHz) in HFP/HSP mode. If that is the case, any fix - using a USB soundcard as you did, or a software fix (which this page is tracking) isn't gonna help. If it does support mSBC, 1Mii B10, and Avantree Leaf, Creative BT-W3 should be able to give decent quality audio. The definition of 'decent' varies of course. Most people in this age and time wouldn't be happy with 8 KHz (else, this page wouldn't exist), but mSBC is decent enough for most people, at least for typical voice calls. You can check the sampling frequency used very easily using Audacity > Record a few seconds using the mic in question > Analyze > Plot Spectrum. Note that Audacity plots in log scale for freq by default. If the highest freq component is just below 4 KHz, it is using CVSD @ 8 KHz sampling, and your headset is the likely culprit. If the highest component is 8 KHz, it is using mSBC @ 16 KHz. If you think that is not good enough, your options are limited. You can use FastStream (FS) which is supported only by a limited number of headsets, as well as by dongles such as Leaf, 1Mii B10, Creative BT-W2. No OS afaik supports it, so you can't use the dongle. Many devices have buggy implementations of FS. AptX LL also supposedly has bidirectional audio support, but the voiceback part is not supported by any device that I know of. ** Bug watch added: github.com/Arkq/bluez-alsa/issues #29 https://github.com/Arkq/bluez-alsa/issues/29 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
@igor871 Very interested to learn more about such Bluetooth audio cards. Years ago I had a Plantronics headset (Voyager?) that came with a USB dongle that presented itself as a USB sound card to the operating system, and it was perfect (two-way HD audio). But the dongle (Plantronics BT300 and BT600) is only compatible with Plantronics headsets from what I understand. I've looked at the Creative Labs USB Bluetooth sound cards (BT-W2 and BT-W3), but the first one requires the FastStream codec to provide high quality two way audio, which is rare, and the second just includes an analog mic that you plug into to your laptop's mic-in port - hardly a solution (I may as well use my laptop's in-built mic). They do support two way audio with your headset's mic, but only in classic HFP mode, which is what we already have. Are you aware of any other solutions? I would pay good money for a USB dongle that presents itself as a sound card to the OS and supports HFP 1.6 HD two way audio. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

@vanvugt Thank you for your quick response!

We're not 100% sure what fixes are required but it looks like it will require fixes in the kernel AND bluez AND pulseaudio.

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
I've got a DG60 dongle (a slightly bigger cousin), and my experiences with a headset that does only have SBC/MP3 codecs (Aftershokz Aeropex) - It switches attached to my Linux (Ubuntu 18.04) automatically to HFP/HSP profile (mono + microphone, but in good quality) when my laptop starts to use the microphone. - You can switch mode manually (for the very seldom case where it somehow does not realize that it should switch).

Re: [Touch-packages] [Bug 1838151] Re: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP. Missing wide band speech support (Bluetooth A2DP codecs).
Nice explanation of the mess that Bluetooth audio is, as I'm reliving my frustrations currently (my wife bought her first headset, for her Windows laptop, and discovered that “plug and play” is sadly “buy and pray” in Bluetooth land :( ) https://habr.com/en/post/456182/ * generally all OS (Android, Linux, Windows, AFAIK, but probably also the Apple offerings) are secretive about what they negotiate with the headset. (I mean, capturing the traffic and analysing it to know which codec is used. OK, on Android & Linux that sounds like part of the heritage, but I discovered yesterday that this state-of-the-art in 2020 in the Windows world) * headset manufacturers tend to be secretive about the features and protocols/profiles their devices support. Now some of that is “understandable” manufacturers not wanting to show that their devices don't support the cool stuff, but in many cases manufacturers don't give the details even if they would show their products in a positive light. Guess they don't want a 2 KB of small print of abbreviations in their spec sheets. * Furthermore BT Audio is complicated by the fact, that historically the standard supports only “high quality" playback & but mono playback with a groovy frequency bandwidth (GSM style sound) when recording audio. There are ways around that, but not all devices implement them, and not always in the same way.” * patented codecs, pure joy (that makes the xkcd comic in the above link even "funnier" for open source systems). * Thus you have a situation that standards that out for decades are still only implemented partially by the market, and where they are implemented, they are not necessary implemented 100% by the book, shudder. Ah, sorry for the rant, but “buying BT headsets” raises my blood pressure, and I'm one of the happy owners of a flagship mobile without a 3.5 mm connector (which is fine, I'm too clumsy to use tethered headphone on the move anyway, shrug).

Actually most laptops (or desktops) can't compete with USB sound cards. Because the audio chips that come on your motherboard: * are usually cheaper and lower quality; * often have limited kernel/ALSA driver support (which is why the alsa-driver bug backlog is always out of control); * often suffer from noise on the headset jack from the digital-to-analog stage being too close to the rest of the computer. So I strongly recommend USB audio in general. Especially for wired headsets where you can also avoid the lossy nature of Bluetooth audio encoding. And for Bluetooth audio, such a USB dongle sounds like a great workaround for this bug. But we all wish it wasn't necessary. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838151 Title: Poor quality audio with modern Bluetooth headsets in HSP/HFP.

Generally speaking, the "USB soundcard" is the last fallback of an experienced Linux user if you are unhappy what is in your laptop. Be it the Bluetooth software stack or the fighting with crappy driver support for the physical sound card hardware. But thanks for pointing out that solution. Andreas Am Mi., 14.

I've just logged in to share the workaround I've been using for the last two years. I have a Sony WH-1000XM3 Bluetooth headset, I bought the following USB key Bluetooth transmitter: https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B01G3J1I5M/ No issues with it, audio quality is great either for music and for calls, both incoming audio and mic.

The ChromiumOS team recently tackled this issue - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=843048 Their efforts may assist in bringing this to Ubuntu, however it appears that there are quite a lot of differences considering they have developed their own audio server solution etc. The Bluetooth Telephony Working Group published the HFP 1.6 spec in May 2011 - https://www.bluetooth.org/docman/handlers/downloaddoc.ashx?doc_id=238193 Patches have been proposed in the past for this issue to the kernel and PulseAudio: PulseAudio: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/245272/ Kernel: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bluetooth/msg76982.html It appears that the Chromium OS team applied the same kernel patch: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/77dd0cb94c1713a8a12f6e392955dfa64c430e54 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.04 Package: pulseaudio 1:12.2-2ubuntu3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.0.0-20.21-generic 5.0.8 Uname: Linux 5.0.0-20-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu27.1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USERPID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: jnappi 2777 F pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sat Jul 27 11:08:29 2019 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-11-04 (629 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Release amd64 (20171018) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: pulseaudio UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to disco on 2019-07-18 (9 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 06/07/2016 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: R07ET67W (2.07 ) dmi.board.asset.tag: Not Available dmi.board.name: 20FW000TUS dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: SDK0J40705 WIN dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: None dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvrR07ET67W(2.07):bd06/07/2016:svnLENOVO:pn20FW000TUS:pvrThinkPadT460p:rvnLENOVO:rn20FW000TUS:rvrSDK0J40705WIN:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNone: dmi.product.family: ThinkPad T460p dmi.product.name: 20FW000TUS dmi.product.sku: LENOVO_MT_20FW_BU_Think_FM_ThinkPad T460p dmi.product.version: ThinkPad T460p dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/1838151/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
