I made the mistake of believing some dumb guide online that recommended the Razer BlackShark v2 Pro for Linux. Literally the volume control is broken out of the box lol.

I just want a wireless headset. For listening to audio. And a mic. Don't care for fancy features. Apparently too much to ask for a linux user.

What are y'all using and how is it working for you?

I don't use a headset. I have proper headphones and a cheap clip-on mic for the rare occasion.

I just use a webcam as a mic. Not great for background noise, but I can stand all the way on the other side of the room and just talk loudly if someone needed to hear me.
