Hi Wol,

If I am you, I would install "mate" desktop, which is basicly gnome2 and 
gnome transition to wayland is as much as I know completed. XFCE is a 
bit behind, that takes a time ...

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/MATE

What I figured out, that this is not the very only thing to have wayland 
supported.
When it comes to screensharing and propper bluetooth integration there 
is a fast moving project called "pipewire".

I have replaced pulseaudio with pipewire on my gentoo machine and teams 
work smooth as well bluetooth with AptX HD.

url: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PipeWire

what this article doesn't cover is to setup the "module policy section"...
Here you sould change in /etc/default/pulse:

  load-module module-bluetooth-policy

to

|load-module module-bluetooth-policy auto_switch=2|

That makes it possible to automaticly switch the codec automaticly when 
"mic" is needed.
(as windows does)

|I am happy :-)|

|best, Tamer
