Maybe because the headphones have Bluetooth 5.0 and the adapter has Bluetooth 2.0?Blueman first sees these headphones and then they disappear.Or maybe the Wi-Fi signal suppresses them? There are many very strong Wi-Fi signals nearby.

If you able to pair the device, check in audio settings whether it’s selecting the correct audio profile to you bluetooth headphone.

pulseaudio-17.0+r43+g3e2bb8a1e-1 and pipewire-pulse-1:1.4.5-1 are in conflict. Remove pipewire-pulse? [y/N] y

I’ll install another USB Bluetooth stick. Maybe it will help.

I connected another Bluetooth USB stick that does not require drivers. Now everything works.
