I have couple if wireless buds and i have seen this that when i connect this with my phone just turn on bluetooth and turnon headphone will automatically connect to that.where as for my laptop ruining fedora if i turn my bluetooth on and buds on i need to open settings and tap on the device to connect it does connect but does not do automatically how i can fix this.?
My Sony Bluetooth headphones manage device switching through their own firmware (Smart Switch via the Sony app), not via OS-level controls. To help understand your issues, I’m wondering:
- Does Fedora (via PipeWire or bluetoothd) influence which paired device the headphones auto-reconnect to after powering on or disconnecting from another device?
- Is there any way to define preferred or prioritized reconnect behavior on the Fedora side?
- Could there be conflicts when the headphones are trusted/paired with multiple OSes (e.g., Android + Fedora)?
- Are there PipeWire or BlueZ logs/settings that show whether Fedora is actively trying to reconnect or getting refused by the device?
