No sound on bluetooth devices after upgrade Big Sur

Hi, after I upgraded to big sur, my headphones (and other bluetooth audio devices) don't turn up anymore on the sound coontrol window. It does pair, but cannot select in-output. Only internal and airplay devices...

Already debugged bluetooth (shift-option click on bluetooth icon) but didn't help. Anyone else with same problems or a solution?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Hi Vincent, sorry for my late reply but mu MacBook was at the repairshop for a new battery. I picked it up just yesterday and tried your solution right away.

Unfortunately it did not help. I receive an illegal option message. I understand absolutely nothing about terminal so don't know where to go from here...


This is the message:


MBP-van-Erwin-2:~ Erwin$ sudo rm -rf/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/HAL/

rm: illegal option -- /
