This bug is referenced here https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/371713238 and a comment from a Google employee on 23/6 says the following:
> Thanks for reporting this issue. The change is available as part of Android open source Bluetooth stack starting March 2026. Mobile phone manufacturers will determine when this will be updated on their respective devices.
