Hi there,
I use Sennheiser PXC 550-II, after updating OSX to version 12.0.1 on the MacBook Pro 2019 16" i9,
mic randomly get mute in the middle of a call and I can able unmute it, I try with the slack app and google meet browser,
how can I fix it? it looks like related to the nice feature to improve Bluetooth accessories.
Regards
I've been having this problem too (Trekz Air and Aeropex) and I've figured out my problem. Looks like if you reduce the mic input level setting to zero then the Mac tells the headphones to mute. I had my Zoom audio settings set to "Automatically adjust microphone volume" which causes it to reduce the mic input level to zero whenever it thinks you are not speaking, which triggers the headphone mute. I have disabled this option and now I don't get the constant muting. There is a similar setting in Microsoft Teams (Devices --> Automatically adjust mic sensitivity) which you also need to disable.
I have the same issue with the same device after the update on Monterey OSX 12.0.1 today.
When will be a new version of OSX?
Actually..my issue has now been mysteriously resolved....my headset seems to be working fine as of yesterday. I have no idea why as I haven't changed anything or applied any updates.
I have exactly the same issue. After upgrading to Monterrey, my Jabra Elite 75t are muted randomly during calls. I use both Google Meet and MS Teams (the app) and it only happens with Meet so far.
I am seeing the same issue with a Jabra 75t headset using both Slack and Zoom on Monterey 12.0.1. A few minutes into the call it will start muting and once I unmute it'll immediately mute again.
Exact same problem with Aftershokz as800's and macOS Monterey on MackBook Pro.
keeps reducing my mic volume to mute and i have to manually unmute my input volume.
Is anyone from Apple monitoring this thread? Any update on a fix would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Thanks mate! Just submitted it.
I just submitted as well.
Actually...it is not resolved. I didn't experience it for a couple of meetings...but it came back. Not sure why it seemed to not be a problem for a spell...
Just filed an issue. this is TERRIBLY inconvenient and makes using bluetooth headphones a non-starter for anything business related.
I have updated my system to 12.1 and my plantronics voyager headset is still muting at random.
I did but not sure if done correctly. I clicked on the drive and shift + continue. It rebooted but didn't notice anything different. The issue persisted afterwards.
Still the same issue with my Sennheiser PXC 550 II Bluetooth Headset after Update to 12.1
Even boot in save mode did not change the issue
I did try the same but it do not fix the problem.
I do not use zoom
randomly mute the bluetooth mic on hedset
