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'm running on Astro A50 - used to have it before Linux and reaaaaally liked the Gaming/Communication Hardware adjustable mix. Got it working after hacking some udev rules thanks to this gist.

Years later I am now aware of the above named arctix headset and would probably take this, since the new G-Suite for logitech headsets is shit on phone (phone bc not working on linux).
