tx andrealmar for sharing this, but if you want to use microphone on bluetooth you need to switch profile to HSP/HFP and installing offono to have mics working but it is still not great because with this profile HPF you have a noise sound in the background that is very anoying i try "Enable Echo/Noise-Cancellation" to /etc/pulse/default.pa but i still have this anoying sound...

is that just due to bluetooth being single channel? the QC35s made that horrible sound on Windows/Mac for me as well, when the microphone and speakers are both 'in use'.

I got this as well. Does anyone know how to fix this?

This works. To get the microphone working, I had to also replace

load-module module-bluetooth-policy 

with

load-module module-bluetooth-policy auto_switch=2

in /etc/pulse/default.pa.
