I'd been struggling with the issue of my headset automatically switching to HSP/HFP from A2DP whenever an application uses a microphone. I have also found a way to disable the Handsfree profile completely on the Arch Wiki.
(Although I use Fedora, I did have to create these wireplumber directories and conf file in ~/.config and it seems to work.)
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Bluetooth_headset#Disable_PipeWire_HSP/HFP_profile

I just thought it would be nice to have it in the KDE sound settings too, where you can just simply disable the HSP/HFP audio profile. Currently, I do see the option to set the mic and speaker profile to OFF. When I do that just for the BT mic, the BT speaker also is automatically set to OFF instead of going to A2DP.
So, if we have an option in the sound settings to be able to disable HSP/HFP altogether, it would be great.
Thanks.

Hmm, I think this is somewhat out of scope as it's a workaround for another issue; let's focus on that issue instead, which is Bug 491511.
