Been having the same issue I just have it disconnect from my headphones then run this script. Not perfect but it works until we get something better.

@Gavinok disconnect didn't work for me on Manjaro

I've got the same problem and the workaround is working. Reconnect resolves the problem. I'd suspect that it's is related to the underlying bluetooth software/driver stack. Battery level querying works in Android even after hours of being connected. This kind of rules out that it's a bug of the headphones.

My bluez version is 5.53-0ubuntu3. Would be interesting if there's anyone not encountering this problem with v5.53. I'm using a Thinkpad T480s which ships with Intel bluetooth hardware: intel/ibt-12-16.sfi(found in dmesg). @sb-child @Gavinok whats your bluez version and bluetooth driver?

I've also found a couple of these messages in my dmesg output, but I'm not sure if they are related to the problem as it is working now after a reconnect. I will try to verify later. [ 6986.966798] Bluetooth: hci0: SCO packet for unknown connection handle 0
