Unable to stream audio using LC3(LE Audio) codec with Samsung Galaxy Buds 2/3 Pro when connected to Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra

Issue Summary:
After updating to One UI 8 and Android 16, my Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra no longer streams audio using the LC3 codec via Bluetooth LE Audio when connected to Galaxy Buds 2 Pro / Buds 3 Pro.

Detailed Description:
Previously, I could enable LE Audio from the Bluetooth settings UI when my Galaxy Buds 2 Pro were connected. This allowed audio streaming over the LC3 codec, as expected. However, after the recent software updates:

The LE Audio toggle is missing from the Bluetooth settings.
Audio now defaults to Samsung Seamless Codec (SSC) instead of LC3.
There’s no visible option to switch to LC3/LE Audio, even though the earbuds and phone support it.
This change has affected audio quality and compatibility with apps that rely on LE Audio features.

Appreciate help
