Hi @neil62 ,
Thank you for your inquiry.
I grasp that you are having an issue with your Bluetooth headset. You are able to pair it but you are not receiving any audio. You have no problems when pairing the headset via Bluetooth with other notebooks or Ipad.
Haves you ran the HP Support Assistant to acquire any HP updates?
Have you done all your Windows updates?
Here are two links that should assist you.

Step 6. Select "Ports (COM & LPT)".
