Cannot connect with Bluetooth headset to Pipewire

I am trying to connect my Samsung WH-CH700N to my HP ZBook Power G10 over Bluetooth. Sadly, it has not worked yet.

This is what I've done so far:

Added

Enable=Control,Gateway,Headset,Media,Sink,Socket,Source

to /etc/bluetooth/main.conf

Checked the log under systemctl status bluetooth.service

When I connect for the first time after restarting the service, I get this:

Nov 09 18:52:29 Bl-Laptop bluetoothd[4951]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.24 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource/aptx_ll_1
Nov 09 18:52:29 Bl-Laptop bluetoothd[4951]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.24 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource/aptx_ll_0

Nov 09 18:52:29 Bl-Laptop bluetoothd[4951]: Endpoint registered: sender=:1.24 path=/MediaEndpoint/A2DPSource/opus_05_duplex

When I attempt to connect when I already am, I get this:

Device is already marked as connected
src/profile.c:ext_connect() Hands-Free Voice gateway failed connect to MAC_ADDRESS: Connection refused
profiles/audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_connect_cb() connect to MAC_ADDRESS: Connection refused (111)

Yet, nothing shows up on `pactl list sinks` related to the bluetooth device, and neither does it in pavucontrol. And, my headset does not play it's 'Bluetooth connected' sound, when I connect it using bluetoothctl.

Does anyone know how to deal with this?
