I got a JBL T460BT headphone. I learnt that to use the mic, I need Pipewire, so I installed pipewire( sudo pacman -S manjaro-pipewire). Now, I have two problems:
- when I try to use the mic using HFP/HSP, the audio is muffled.
- The option to play sound on multiple devices simultaneously (which worked in Pulseaudio) is gone.
