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.

      I have this issue because I have the same one. I have to reseat the usb dongle if I ever boot into a different OS or the volume control on bazzite won’t work next time I use it. Like I turn the volume up and down but the headphones stay the same volume. Once I do that, I can control the volume properly and I won’t have to do it again until I boot into a different OS (dual booted with win 11). I have the profile in bazzite’s audio devices for the Blackshark set to “Pro Audio”. Seems to work for me, maybe it can help passing it along?
