Sharp drop in audio quality while using other bluetooth devices

Version, Distribution, Desktop Environment: Version 0.3.19 on Arch Linux with Gnome

Description of Problem: I'm using bluetooth keyboard, mouse and headphones for some month now, but after switching to pipewire-pulse (from pulseaudio with aptX) I get a sharp drop in sound quality/lag/jitter (I'm not 100% sure what it is but it sounds horrible) while typing or using my mouse.

I'm fairly confident it's no hardware/kernel problem because it worked fine wile using pulseaudio.

How Reproducible: With my keyboard it's jarring, but mouse input is much less noticeable (sometimes unnoticeable).

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. connect additional bluetooth device (mouse/keyboard)
  2. start typing/clicking/scrolling
  3. audio quality drops
  4. switch from A2DP to HFS/HFP and back
  5. everything works fine
