I'm experiencing the same issue with a Philips SHB7250 headset on a fully up-to-date 20.04. This headset used to work fine until about a couple of weeks ago (I have been running 20.04 since the early days, so it's a recent regression).
Switching back and forth between sinks in g-c-c doesn't make the issue go away, though. Sound output is always through the laptop built-in speakers. I have also tried resuming the corresponding sink (it's marked SUSPENDEND) and setting it the default using pactl, to no avail. ** Tags added: rls-ff-incoming -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1850766 Title: Bluetooth headset selected as default sound output, yet sound outputs to laptop speakers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1850766/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
