All three include a mic and can answer a phone call, when paired to a phone. Why their mics would not connect through Bluetooth on the PC, it must be the electronics inside those headsets, maybe they're just not recognizing a certain profile. In the Bluetooth Manager: A2DP (default) worked fine with all headphones tested. For the two sets of headphones that successfully work with their mics, it required the connection be changed to Audio Sink first, then select the HFP/HSP profile. ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
