Hi there, so I recently got a new headset [Baseus Bowie D05], but for whatever reason, on the current version of Garuda it refuses to work. (I have two other headsets - SoundBlaster Jam V1 and V2, that work under this system without any issues. The Baseus headset works without any problems on my phone and console. The Bluetooth adapter is an integrated one on a B650E Steel Legend WiFi motherboard.)

It’d just play music for 1-2 seconds, and disconnect right away with the “terminated by local host” error.
Found some rather sparse info on the internet and decided to downgrade bluez to a previous version.

Now the behaviour is almost the same, but it just disconnects without any error visible to me.
Then I decided to boot an old Garuda iso from 2024, the bluez there was version 5.70, and for some reason, the headset works flawlessly.

Downgrading bluez to 5.70 on my system wouldn’t make much difference from the 5.80 downgrade, but I also assume I might need to downgrade some other package; however, I’m unsure which, as that might solve my issue.
One more thing I did, as I have a BT dongle controller (also from baseus), I connected that on the 5.70 downgraded bluez and it works.

Sorry for the clutter in this one, I didn’t block all my neighbours’ BT devices on this controller.
So yeah, any help would be welcome, and sorry if I didn’t add some necessary details.
