It is still broken with kernel-5.9.15. The strange thing is that every 
now and again if the stars align just right, the connection is stable. 
Is there a way of making btmon even more verbose so that I can see what 
is going on?
My wild guess is that the stability of the connection has something to 
do with which profile (A2DP or HSP) gets activated first. Can this be 
controlled somehow?

Best regards,
Julian
