Bluetooth speaker/headphones does not show as sound device (Win 11)

Hi, I have issues with using my bluetooth sound devices on my FW laptop (FW 13, AMD Ryzen 7640) running Windows 11. I can pair and connect the speaker or headphones but they do not show up as a output device for sound. Moreover, when I try to open up sound settings over Control Panel, nothing happens. Does anyone encountered a similar issue? I have installed the latest drivers and firmware bundle from Framework.


Not sure if this helps, but I wanted to report that I encountered the same issue with my Framework Laptop 16. I tried plugging in wired headphones, but those didn’t work either.

Rebooting fixed the issue for me, but I’m not sure if it’ll happen again.
