But the audio quality was poor, because the default audio profile was the low-quality HSP/HFP one. When I used pavucontrol to switch it to the A2DP profile, it sounded perfect. I don't know enough about Bluetooth to suggest a solution, but this is definitely an issue. My Mac used the correct profile with no configuration and sound was perfect with no configuration, but my Linux system didn't, and I had to start a reddit thread and read a wiki page to learn how to get the device to produce decent audio. This is a sub- optimal user experience for someone like my wife or my mother, who would would just assume that it doesn't work and blame the speaker or the OS.

I don't know why we have higher priority for HSP.

In that case, wasn't the code correct before the fix?
