I've never been able to get bluetooth headphones working in GNOME. This set is connected in the bluetooth settings, where I'm directed to the sound settings, but it's not listed there. There must be a middle step I'm missing. What would this be? Jon Cosby

Hi Could be the bluetooth adapter support? For the adapter; bluetoothctl show For the device; bluetoothctl info For example: <https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/81d51d1368ab> -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° (Linux Counter #276890) Tumbleweed 20240613 | GNOME Shell 46.2 | 6.9.3-1-default HP Z440 | Xeon E5-2695 V4 X36 @ 2.10GHz | ARC A380 up 0:25, 3 users, load average: 0.25, 0.50, 0.77
From bluetoothctl info, the device is an audio-headset, paired, bonded, trusted and connected. It doesn't appear in the sound settings, though. Is there a way to add it manually? Jon Cosby On 2024-06-16 09:51, Malcolm wrote:

As near as I can tell. From the output: $ bluetoothctl show ... UUID: Audio Sink (0000110b-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) UUID: Audio Source (0000110a-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) ... $ bluetoothctl info ... UUID: Audio Sink (0000110b-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb) ... Jon Cosby

So if you create a test user and login as the test user does it work? -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° (Linux Counter #276890) Tumbleweed 20240614 | GNOME Shell 46.2 | 6.9.4-1-default HP Z440 | Xeon E5-2695 V4 X36 @ 2.10GHz | ARC A380/Tesla P4 up 14:43, 2 users, load average: 0.64, 0.29, 0.26
