Bluetooth Microphones Don't work with Big Sur?

The bluetooth microphones from two different headsets have quit working on my MacBook Pro. They work fine with my XR phone and my iPad. Makes me wonder if there is a glitch in Big Sur 11.1 that might be causing this issue

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

M1 MacBook Pro audio glitch I cannot locate a relevant thread here, but there are reports all over the internet, including several audio forums and Apple dev. forums regarding audio glitches on M1 hardware. The audio crackling or popping can occur in any application and is frequently (perhaps always?) accompanied by a console message like the following: 3587 HALS_OverloadMessage.cpp:222 HALS_OverloadMessage: Overload due to HAL client proc exceeding io cycle budget The audio defect, and console message occur *almost every time* I use an application with audio. I am running MacOS 12.6 on a MacBookPro18,3. Internet lore on the subject suggests deleting the audio plist files in /Library/Preferences/Audio/. I have not found that to be a reliable fix for the problem. Has anyone discovered a reliable solution to this problem? Please help, Apple. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Ventura Bluetooth issues. Why is Apple dragging its feet when addressing the Bluetooth issues created with the Ventura OS 13.0 update? It is impossible to connect my keyboard to my Macbook Pro since the update and all of my mice have a terrible lag as if the buffers get full and then empty out. I can never tell where the pointer will be at any given time because it seldom follows my mouse. The keyboard and mice work fine on all other Bluetooth enabled devices, but NOT on the one device I have with Ventura. (And, yes, I have done all the troubleshooting. Nothing makes it work properly for more than a few minutes.) It is sloppy and anti-user to let this bug continue! I left PC's to get away from this kind of shoddy workmanship!

MacBook keeps using my iPhone as a mic After the update from Monterey to Ventura, my MacBook keeps connecting to my iPhone at random times automatically using my mic while I'm in the middle of working in Figma or simply watching YouTube videos. Very frustrating because I'll be listening to music or podcasts on my iPhone then my Macbook will connect to it randomly then it instantly disconnects from it then cuts off my podcast or music then I have to manually play it after it happens. How do I turn this random 'connecting to my devices' off?
