Public bug reported: GNOME team just enabled support for LDAC decoding on GNOME OS. Here is the news[1] and the MR[2]. I noticed that Debian disables the feature because the library is not on Debian repository, but couldn't Ubuntu enable it? It's great for users like me who have a modern Bluetooth headphone (I have a Sony WH-1000XM6).
