Unusual noise issue There’s a strange sound happening It’s affecting your experience Let me help resolve it
You're experiencing some unusual Bluetooth behavior with your headphones on Linux Mint 21.2. It sounds like the issue is related to how Bluetooth profiles are handled. When you switch between output profiles—like from "A2Dp sink" to "HFP"—the microphone might be detected differently, which could explain why it works in Discord but not with your wired headphones or other devices. The problem might also be tied to the Bluetooth stack or audio routing settings. Since the issue only appears in Discord and not with your wired setup, it could be a configuration or driver problem specific to that app. You may want to check your Bluetooth drivers, try a different profile, or consult the manufacturer's support for further troubleshooting.
I'm not sure what changed this time, but using the second pair of headphones, I switched the input device to "microphone built in audio" rather than my wireless ones. Also set "built-in audio analog stereo" in Discord, and everything seems to be working properly.
