Since I switched to XA2 I cannot pickup (answer) / hangup phone calls with Bluetooth headsets. Its the same for a LG and a Jabra headset. Though, Double tapping of the answer/hangup button on the headset initiates a redial of the last call. So every time I get a call or want to terminate I need to get the phone out of the pocket, maybe even unlock and use the touch screen. Do you know a workaround or a fix?

Now I tried to trace the issue as described in https://together.jolla.com/question/166857/howto-enable-debug-mode-with-bluez5-bluetooth-on-jollac/

journalctl --unit=bluetooth -f shows a lot of activities for playing audio via the a2dp profile. However when I receive a call or when I press the Answer/End call button nothing is shown in the log. So it seem that phone calls are not handled by BlueZ. No clue where to search for further details.

I use with my Xperia XA2 Plus a Voyager Legend Headset ( https://www.plantronics.com/ch/de/product/voyager-legend ) and use it in the simple form. I have to answer a call by pressing the button on the headset and redial by activating the voice commands on the headset.

I'm using the same hardware (XA2+ & Voyager Legend) and my answer button does not work. It used to work sometimes/unreliably with JollaC...

What do you mean by answer button?

I have to press the voice command key and then say the command to call back.

It could answer with the button on the side (maybe was a bug). But it also used to work if I switched on the headset during the call, then it automatically answers the call after connecting to phone.
