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?

As others have mentioned, I also use separate headphones and a microphone, mainly because I haven’t had great experiences with headsets in the past.

Right now, I’m using the Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X paired with a HyperX QuadCast 2, and I’ve been really happy with the setup.
