I use pulseaudio at the moment with fedora 34, tried pipewire but had much headache with bluetooth headphones. However I should admit that HSP/HFP profile started working with pipewire (did not work with pulseaudio at all). Still it is quite unstable, so I had to switch back to pulseaudio and use internal laptop microphone with bluetooth headphones.

That doesn't sound good. Is there a chance and way to stay with pulseaudio?
