  The only issue I have is that I can't use LDAC with my bluetooth headphones (Sony WF-1000XM4). This is probably related to bluez: https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/313 It's fixed in bluez 5.65 which is not available in the repositories (yet). The current repository version of bluez is 5.64.

• Xbox controller model 1914 and Steam link

  I am sorry but this is still not clear enough. I will assume that you are using a Linux based system e.g a raspberry pi and a Xbox one series x/s controller (the one with the share button). If this is the case, I have bad news for you: they still didn’t fix the problem with the Bluetooth ble inside the Bluetooth stack implementation on most Linuxes OS (Debian, Ubuntu or anything that uses BLUEZ). If the controller is not the latest BLE version, it is only a matter of updating it to a newer kernel (5.13 or higher) and the latest blues version, as there was also another problem that was solved for the older controllers. If you are in the first case where they didn’t fixed it yet. You can report it on GitHub or just follow this issue https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/155 to check if something new comes up, there is also the possibility to use a Bluetooth dongle and somehow “transplant” the pairing keys from a windows computer to Linux so that the controller leaves this “connection loop”. Check that GitHub issue or this https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo/issues/198
