Galaxy Buds Plus connection to Macbook Pro

[indoboss]

I was able to pair the earbuds with MacBook Pro. I can play YouTube videos and listen to the audio. However, I am unable to make calls with Google Voice or use the Earbuds for WebEx meetings. The microphone does not seem to work. I can open System Preferences and I see that Buds are chosen as Input and Output device. I also checked that I have not accidentally clicked the Mute checkbox.

Any suggestions? Is this a bluetooth codec issue? Do I need to purchase USB bluetooth sound card?

Thank you

Enabling Ambient Mode when im connected to the mac seems to work. I setup the shortcut to press and hold one side of the ear buds. However, I suspect this might not be the correct way to use this and was looking for an alternative in the forums

found somewhere else in reddit, that this happens when you switched on the setting "Use Ambient sound during calls" under "Advanced" settings in the galaxy wearable app. After disabling this, the buds microphone was picked up by my mac.
