No A2DP, only HSP/HSF profile

Since a week ago (?) my Bluetooth earphones only show up as HSP/HSF, without the A2DP sink, which causes the sound quality to be deficient.
I am using only pipewire, AFAIK, and fully updated with `pipewire-pulse` installed.

Re: No A2DP, only HSP/HSF profile

Sometimes the bluetooth cache gets weirdly corrupted, try re-pairing the device and/or removing the contents of /var/lib/bluetooth/ before doing so

it does help, but it seems like I need to do it everytime...
