As of late this summer I was unable to get my BT headphones to work on Fedora in a 2-way transmission mode. The speakers would work but not the microphone. I don't remember the details but when I dug deep into the issue, there seemed to be a fight about merging a PR that would allow it.

There are no longer many things keeping me from going all-Linux but I am not going to sit through every meeting chained to my desktop with a little earbud wire.

Hopefully pipewire will resolve this, and I don't think any of us realized in advance what meetings were going to look like in 2020.

If it isn’t working, you might need to switch your headphones to the HSP profile. You can do this in Pavucontrol, the last tab with the devices. I prefer using wired headphones or at least a wired setup for this because HSP is piss-poor quality. But the quality issue, at least, is nothing especially new for BT devices on calls.
