I don't know if this is the correct community to ask this but I have a problem with my Jabra Elite 4 Active Bluetooth headphones. I can't connect them with my Fedora 41 KDE laptop. Is this a KDE issue? Or a general Linux issue? Every other Bluetooth device I tried so far worked without a problem (speaker, mouse, keyboard, etc.)

Try using Bluetoothctl command from terminal. Personally been having connection issues a lot before but it always worked when I tried using Bluetoothctl and not through KDE.

If I remember correctly it's done this way :

bluetoothctl
power on
agent on
scan on
# (wait for the headset to appear, then use its MAC address in the next command)
connect <MAC_ADDRESS>
trust <MAC_ADDRESS>
