Have you tried a bluetooth headset dongle? NOT a general bluetooth dongle, but something specifically designed for headsets, e.g. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089PYFLBN https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089PYFLBN I had dramatically better luck with that, which AFAICT just presents to the OS as a USB-C headset, and has an entirely-internal bluetooth stack. Or just try using your phone - I connect both phone and computer to zoom meetings for instance. For some reason, desktop OSes / bluetooth chip stacks are absolutely awful compared to the ones in iOS / Android devices. Nearly everything connects to my Pixel 4a just fine, while nearly everything stutters when connected to my MacBook, and often doesn't connect at all to my Dell.
