Yeah I have these same headphones, and hate to break it to you, but I've only managed to successfully use them for listening to music only. As soon as you put em in headset mode, the audio quality drops to shit, regardless of codec. I also had the same problem on windows as well as linux though.

I personally have a turtle beach headset for gaming, comes with its own dongle, plug and play on any os I've tried. Sound quality obviously not for audiophile uses, doesn't quite compare with the Sonys but for gaming, they more than meet the requirements, still plenty of bass etc. I must've had em, shit, like 7 years maybe? Maybe more? Still going strong with zero issues. I've got the older generation with micro usb connector. I have relatives with the newer gen (with usb c, smaller dongle) and they are even more comfy, and again, zero issues after a couple years or so.

Okay so they look at little different to what I remember so they may well have brought out a new generation by the looks of things. I must have gen 1, then a couple friends/relatives have gen 2, they've got gen 3 out now. Do a little homework first but more than likely they will be great. They are the Turtle Beach Stealth 600.

Apologies if this reads like an ad, just offering advice lmao. Ignore my last two paragraphs if u aint interested in my opinion.
