Switch bluetooth audio profile on Kubuntu 21.10

When I use my bluetooth headphones with Zoom audio conferencing I want the HFP profile (Handsfree Head Unit) to be enabled so the mic will work.

On Kubuntu 20.04 I could manually switch the profile with

pactl set-card-profile bluez_card.60_AB_D2_45_5D_47 headset_head_unit

On 21.10 that doesn't work any more. Ideally, I would like it to switch automatically. Second choice would be to set it for HFP by default. Third choice would be a command to switch it to HFP.

This is what I get when I connect the headphones:

 pactl list | grep -A2 "bluetooth.codec" bluetooth.codec = "sbc" device.description = "Bose QC35 II" device.string = "60:AB:D2:45:5D:47" bluetooth.codec = "sbc" Profiles: headset_head_unit: Headset Head Unit (HSP) (sinks: 1, sources: 1, priority: 30, available: no)

This is what I get after manually enabling HSP via the volume settings

 pactl list | grep -A2 "bluetooth.codec" bluetooth.codec = "mSBC" device.intended_roles = "phone" device.description = "Bose QC35 II" bluetooth.codec = "mSBC" device.intended_roles = "phone" device.description = "Bose QC35 II" bluetooth.codec = "mSBC" Profiles: headset_head_unit: Headset Head Unit (HSP) (sinks: 1, sources: 1, priority: 30, available: no)
