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 recently bought a pair of "sony CH-520" and they work great.

Work well with the Steam Deck, good battery life and sound. I've actually heard myself back in other people's speakers and the mic sounds great lol. There wasn't any additional software needed, so they get my recommendation.
