the bluetooth pipewire pulseaudio mix could be a bit better.

It’s gotten to the point that my bluetooth headphones will not connect to my laptop because I don’t currently have any media playing.

Load up a youtube video, the audio device springs into life, offers it up as pulseaudio source, who signals to bluez that there is a valid audio profile and suddenly everything connects.

From an efficiency standpoint, yes I get it. From a UX standpoint… please just let my earphones connect when I enable bluetooth from the get go
