I have found the solution.
You are absolutely right. To be more specific - the problem is with Windows (as usual, thank you Microsoft) but it is a well known problem. Basically - all OS can use aptx bluetooth codec (quality sound transmitted over BT 5) except windows. Windows - as I understand it - didnt built in a support for the aptx if the headset has microphone.
Windows can push quality sound in one direction only. So if your headset has microphone you need to switch to Windows super old handsfree mode which uses some 8kHz sound (sounds like a phone call 😃 ) and then it can do both ways - sound and microphone.
A simple workaround is that you BLOCK your BT headset microphone as a device and the sound works OK then in BF V. But what IS a BF V problem is the fact that I can't tell the game in its settings: Hey - dont use this device for microphone, use this instead... There is no device settings in BF 5 at all... Thats my opinion at least :-(
This was the only thing I've found to help! Disable the microphone on my BT device got me back going. Thanks!
