Problem with the audio profile or codec using Bluetooth headphones.

When my Bluetooth headphones connect to my laptop, they use the "High Fidelity Playback /A2DP Sink" profile with the SBC codec. However, when I use this setting, I can’t hear anything.

I think the problem has no relation with my headphones, just because before reinstalling Arch, they seem to work without problems.

Btw, I've tried with other codecs and profiles like Headset Head Unit (HSP/HFP, codec mSBC and also CVSD). While using this settings I could hear everything with them, but the quality of the audio is much worse.

These are the audio-related packages that I've installed on my system:

• pavucontrol.

• pipewire-pulse.

• bluez, bluez-utils, bluez-libs and bluez-qt.

• libldac

I've also tried reinstalling these packages and using the packages pulseaudio and pulseaudio-bluetooth, but the issue persists.

Thank you very much in advance.
