Hi gang,

So our favorite hardworking honest people over at Microsoft have deliberately left Bluetooth OFF the menu for their latest line of consoles. Instead of something reliable and easy to use, they went with proprietary tech instead.  

Anyhow I'm running Windows 11.  Trying to pair a set of headphones with the Mini adapter so that I can then plug it into the xbox usb port.

Problem is is that it's not doing anything. 

I disabled all the entries for bluetooth in the device manager except for the UB500.   No go.

Shut off bluetooth from Windows.   Still no go. 

I'm about ready to sell my Microsoft stock and invest it into a company that doesn't hate its customers.  

Any useful feedback would be welcome.
