I don't know helpful that is... but I had a similar problem.

I'm using the sony wf-1000xm2 and I was also not able to use the codec I wanted to use. (ldac)
After updating the firmware of my headphones everything functions just the way it should.

Can you try to update your headset? (if possible)

In my case, it's

I'm using WH-1000XM3
I can also reproduce it in official pulseaudio bluetooth modules.

Hello,

I have the same issue. Plain pulseaudio has the same issue.
There is a patch against pulseaudio-13 that fixes this and make possible to switch to HFP profile (found here : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1311238 but this refers to some pull requests referenced).

I confirm the fix, but with this, I loose apt-Xwith A2DP provided by your bt moduels fork.

You may eventually port this patch to your fork ?

Hello

I need some help
My Ubuntu is 20.04 LTS
I did as was suggested here
But, when I connect my MPOW I got:

			Part of profile(s): a2dp_source_sbc, a2dp_source_aac, a2dp_source_aptx, a2dp_source_aptx_hd, headset_head_unit

The most important part
headset_head_unit: available: no

I have only one source a2dp_source_sbc: High Fidelity Capture
When I try to change profile, I got
Failed to change profile to a2dp_source_sbc
