Every time i play this or MCC my sound quality turns to ♥♥♥♥ when I am using my Sony Bluetooth headphones, does anyone have the same problem? if so how did you fix it, Its only Halo where this happens. Windows 11 btw.

It sounds like a windows "feature". I had the same issue with the MCC. Basically, windows switches the headphone mode to "hands-free headset," aka phone call, because you can speak with teammates using the microphone. One solution to that problem is to go to the sound settings and disable it. There are plenty of tutorials online. Here is one random I found on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows11/comments/12tqbyn/how_to_disable_handsfree_mode_for_bluetooth/. Alternatively you can just google "windows 11 disable handsfree bluetooth"

Edit: It is more of a workaround than an actual fix. For some users, it works, and for others, not really.

Edit: This does not fix it and in fact my audio did go as below poster, there seems to be a serious bluetooth headphones issue with this game which stems from Windows 11 not saving a setting properly every time you restart.

I am sorry to have caused you some additional problems. Micorosft seriously needs to fix the bluetooth audio functionality.

I had the same problem and it is infact a Windows 11 bluetooth issue.

When deactivating "Handsfree" under bluetooth services, it stood deactivated in Windows 10. In Windows 11 you have to deactivate all handsfree listings in your device manager. And even that doesn't always stay after restart or it needs a restart to stay. Windows 11 is garbage with blutetooth.
