How to connect Powerbeats Pro with Ubuntu 22.04

Sometimes Linux doesn't recognize immediately your headphones. In Ubuntu 22.04 you can do it on this way to work your headphones.

Default setup for bluetooth you can find on the location:

 /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

To change some settings you need to go in the main.conf and instead of ControllerMode= dual, change it to bredr,
ControllerMode= bredr.

You can try it without deleting # in the front of ControllerMode.

Edit file:

 sudo nano /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

After this, you need to restart bluetooth, using command:

 sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

In the next step go to Settings -> Bluetooth and discover your device Powerbeats Pro, Air Pods ... It should be on the list. If this method doesn't work.

TRY NEXT:

DELETE # IN THE FRONT OF ControllerMode= bedr and then use command for restart bluetooth through CLI.

If after restart through CLI doesn't work, then you should restart your computer.
