Bluetooth microphone stops working during SFB calls
windowspcguy - sadly, I did not. I read a few articles online suggesting that Windows 10 wasn't copying with Bluetooth data bandwidth required to support both speakers and microphone at the same time. As a result, while the audio quality over my BT headset is quite decent, people on the other side of VoIP calls complain they can barely hear me.
With heavy heart, I only use my BT headsets to listen (audio) and the built-in laptop microphone to speak...
Piotr JJ Szymanski the odd thing is that it works for a period of time - and then stops. I have others that I work with who have no issues on Win10 with BT headsets - same model headsets that I use (and in my case I have used at least 3 different headsets - with the same results). So if it was a Win10 issue - it would be consistent, if it was a headset issue then it would be only on one make/model headset - which is what makes me think it is the laptop model - i have not had the issue until I started using the Spectre.
More research! I will post back if I nail it!

windowspcguy , indeed! In a few weeks, I am going to swap the Spectre for another laptop - will do some testing then.

Piotr_JJ Hi Piotr, have you found any solution? I've got exactly same issue - using different headphones, different laptops, different networks - after couple minutes i get info "Mic is not working"...
- Piotr_JJFeb 15, 2020Copper ContributorI have been using another laptop model for almost half a year now, and did not experience the issue. It must have been an old laptop hardware problem.
