My Sony WH-1000X M3 bluetooth headphone produces various strange things for a long while. Current symptom: the sound is strongly distorted on my manjaro machine. Voice is understandable, but it is very challenging, and no fun at all. In another devices (android & windows) it works fine. I’ve tried multiple kernel versions and I’ve tried everything related I’ve found on the internet. I’ve gathered many information, but it was little help. Does anybody spot the issue from the information below?

I am not sure what causes the difference.

I’ve checked the Archwiki’s Bluetooth page, but I’ve got no [IdentityResolvingKey] section.
