Dell Latitude 7440 with Windows 11 23H2 - clean install and all Dell drivers up to date - no software installed. Intel AX211 Bluetooth adapter.
Pair a Bluetooth headset and go to the microphone test in Settings and all is well - the VU meter goes up/down based on the volume of my voice. Turn off headphones/put back in case, then reconnect, I will only get output. The microphone does not show up and the test in Settings shows no audio coming from the microphone.
To fix this, I either have to re-pair the headset or reboot the computer. This is very repeatable and will do it with any Bluetooth headset I use. Same behavior if I put the machine to sleep or in hibernate.
Just for kicks, I installed Windows 10 22H2. Another clean install, all Dell drivers up to date, and no software installed. Paired the same headset and turned the headphones off/on, computer in sleep, etc....never an issue. The microphone always works.
