### Why does the audio quality degrade when using the microphone of my Bluetooth headset as input in CoScreen, Zoom, and other tools?
8+
9+
If you're using a Bluetooth headset, the playback quality may degrade when your headset's microphone is selected as an audio input device. You may notice this if you play audio (for example, play a YouTube video) while you are in a CoScreen session. This can occur because your Bluetooth headset has switched to using a different Bluetooth profile.
10+
11+
When only playing audio, Bluetooth headsets typically use the [A2DP profile][2], which is optimized for high audio quality but does not support using the microphone. If you choose your headset microphone as audio input (for example, during a CoScreen session or Zoom meeting) the headset switches to a different profile, usually [HFP][3] or [HSP][4], which supports microphone usage but has lower sound quality. Most Bluetooth headsets can use only one profile at a time.

13+
To avoid this issue, you can use a different audio input—such as a laptop's built-in microphone. You may need to restart your application to regain high quality audio.
