Steps to reproduce:

This also affects Vivaldi, which I suppose makes sense as it uses Chromium.

I'm using PipeWire.

Works for me but I'm not using PipeWire. Is this still any issue for you?

Not anymore. I'm not sure what fixed it, but got a new Bluetooth USB adapter, and updated some of my PipeWire scripts.

Thanks for the info. I'm guessing it could also be that Chromium 89 switched to PipeWire 0.3 (it was using libpipewire02 before that).
