Hi all, I have an interesting issue that I'm hoping can be solved. I have a pair of Anker Soundcore A40 earbuds and they connect fine to the Deck. However the Deck doesn't pick up on the microphone input at all - I've had a look under input devices and it fails to show up. Is there anything I can do (packages, drivers etc) to get this to work?

So if HSP mode is a thing on every Bluetooth headset, is there no way to trigger it on Steam Deck?

No, it’s working as designed. The 3.5mm Jack also can’t sense if there’s a microphone plugged in with the headphones and just assumes there is, completely disabling the onboard microphone. Which is super annoying if you’re trying to use a pair of sennheisers or something lol. Also by design according to valve engineers
