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?

Yeah lesson learned lol. I figured, I don't need the fancy features. Turns out volume control is a fancy feature. And I'm not even talking about the volume wheel on the headphones. I'm saying, adjusting my system volume barely affects the headphone volume.
