    No, it’s a known Mac OS issue. They consider it a feature and suggest disabling Bluetooth or shutting down the machine entirely as workarounds.

    Do you always have to manually reconnect your Sony headphones to your Mac? If so, that’s another annoying bug/feature of their Bluetooth implementation where it doesn’t automatically connect to some devices for some silly reason. I had this issue with a Bluetooth mouse which was very annoying.

      It’s been a while since I used them for my MacBook but from what I remember they’ll pair with whatever you last had them paired with. So if you’re switching between listening on your phone and your laptop you have to manually put them in pairing mode, turn off your WiFi, or forget device. Sony headphones are geared towards listening on your phone though - you can’t adjust the eq settings or anything when they’re connected to your laptop.

      I’m looking at getting a new pair of Sony in ear buds (mine are over the ear) because I’m allergic to my AirPods. The reviews of the link buds said they could be simultaneously connected to two Bluetooth devices and switch more easily between them.
