Every so often something comes up in #linux that starts to put me over the edge because it -feels- so, f'n, simple in concept, but requires very specific knowledge to be able to adjust.
In this case, a very naughty application kept wanting to switch my bluetooth headset to the "hey, you're clearly making a phone call, lets use POTATO algorithims for two way audio" aka: the HSP profile(s).
NO. I HAVE AN EXTERNAL MICROPHONE.
In this age of enshittification, google search is near useless.
