Linux Mint / Ubuntu - Low volume bluetooth speaker

I have the Bose SoundLink Micro bluetooth speaker and sometimes when connecting to my laptop the volume seems really low.  This is what fixes it for me.

* let it auto-connect

* disconnect in Linux

* manually reconnect using the bluetooth manager in Linux

After that my volume is back to normal.

 

Firefox DNS over HTTPS and "connection timed out"

I noticed on I site I use a lot suddenly images were not loading properly.  This happens sometimes with this site so I did not think much about it.  But then I notice no other users are complaining about it, and notice the images load ok in Chromium.

I double checked about:networking in Firefox and notice it's trying to do the IPv4 lookup , which fails.  But Chromium does the IPv6 lookup, which worked.

After I turned off DNS over HTTPS and restart Firefox it worked ok.  Before restarting Firefox it did not work.

XFCE change to workspace for notification

In XFCE I have several workspaces.  If I am on workspace 2 and an app on workspace 1 has a notification when I click that notification it pulls the app from workspace 1 into workspace 2.  What I want is when I click the notification to be taken into workspace 1.  This setting fixes that.

Go into XFCE settings > Window Manager Tweaks > Focus tab and pick "Switch to window's workspace"
