I made the mistake of believing some dumb guide online that recommended the Razer BlackShark v2 Pro for Linux. Literally the volume control is broken out of the box lol.
I just want a wireless headset. For listening to audio. And a mic. Don’t care for fancy features. Apparently too much to ask for a linux user.
What are y’all using and how is it working for you?

I still use a set of Shure DJ headphones which have been glued back together a few times. They are very comfortable and have excellent sound reproduction.
Arctis Nova Pro Wireless. My biggest recommendation for wireless though is just to avoid Bluetooth. Get something with its own dedicated base station. Not that Bluetooth doesn’t work with Linux, but it’s just not the best tech and introduces a lot of potential failure points.
I got this recommendation from a colleague too and it seems really good but it sure is pricey. Were you able to take full advantage of all the fancy features with linux?
Not OP, but the software currently is incompatible with linux AFAIK. There are some third-party applications that try to restore some of the features available in Windows, most notably the chat-mix, but I haven’t yet gotten that working and honestly just gave up on it. I have one of the other Arctis models though, not the Pro.
