Did anybody succeed to make the Jabra Evolve2 65 headset work in openSUSE 15.3 running GNOME?

  • A2DP Sink works fine in stereo
  • HFP and HSP (mono) cannot play the test sounds; I only hear some noise
  • most importantly, the microphone does not work (no input signal)

What could I do to debug?

Versions of significant packages are:

  • kernel-default-5.3.18-150300.59.68.1.x86_64
  • pulseaudio-14.2-4.2.x86_64
  • bluez-5.55-3.8.1.x86_64

Not the answer I was looking for, but a work-around at least:

If you use the USB device (Jabra Link 380) that comes with the headset, you realize that the device is not a Bluetooth adapter, but a combined audio and keyboard device. Thus the system sees an audio device with stereo speakers and a mono microphone. In addition you get some buttons to control multimedia.

I tested it, and I could record and play back sounds correctly.

(Unrelated, but maybe interesting: I tried the Ubuntu Studio 22.04 live media, and there the headset worked in HFP mode (in addition to stereo playback in A2DP mode) using the built-in Bluetooth adapter)
