Hello Manjaro Community,
I need your help with my issue about the microphone/audio input of my wireless headphones (Philips UH202).
The issue appeared after I fixed another issue which was the headphones were not connecting via Bluetooth. This Bluetooth issue arised after the latest updates, and I did this to fix it:
- I switched from PulseAudio to PipeWire (as advised e.g. in this post).
- I downgraded
bluezfrom5.83to5.79(similarly like advised here).
After these steps, the headphones are connecting properly and audio output is working (I can hear the music), but turned out than the headphones built-in microphone is not working.
Instead, I can slightly hear my voice through a lot of noises from the laptop built-in microphone and not from the headphones mic.
What I observed is that previously it was enough to have Internal Microphone - Built-in Audio set as Input Device, but now this is not working.
And if I switch to second option Handsfree - Philips UH202, then the sound coming from mic is very mumbled and almost not able to be heard, and the audio output quality goes down drastically too.
Here are outputs of some useful commands, but let me know if you need some more info from me.

I’ve already tried some fixes posted in similar threads on this forum, but none of them worked.
I feel like I’m lost, so any help is appreciated!
Thank you in advance
