Bluetooth Audio - device not found

Hello-
I have a new install of Kali set up, and I've been able to successfuly pair my bluetooth headphones (Rocketfish RF-MAB2) to my laptop.

However, the headphones do not appear to have an audio device present in the Sound Preferences. The only device seen there is the "Built In Audio". I've been trying to search for an answer, and in the process have installed a handful of different bluetooth or audio packages, but to no avail. This is probably a fairly simple config fix, but I'm not seeing it. Can anyone lend a hand?

Did you ever figure this out? I managed to get my headset paired with Kali, but I can't get any audio through them. When I hit the play/pause button on the headset, I get a crossed-out-circle on the screen, so there is an active connection...

It's just a simple config fix. Found this link and solved my bluetooth headphone (sennheiser mm-550x) problems

After following the instructions it worked. I attached a screen shot.
