OBS fails to monitor my audio with stereo when attempting to use my TOZO NC9 earbuds as a microphone. 30.2.3

I've had no issues up until now using my earbuds as a monitoring device using stereo. It works flawlessly.

Some irrelevant info, I've been having cable issues with my old mic and decided to stop using it, so I switched to my camera mic, it's barely tolerable with filters on and frankly annoying to listen to. So I decided to use my wireless earbuds as microphone instead.

Back to the problem. Now that I'm using my earbuds both as a listening device AND a microphone, OBS refuses to monitor any sound at all through Stereo, but the microphone recording sounds infinitely better than my usb camera. On a side note, I CAN monitor my audio if I have the monitor device set as hands-free as well, but the audio quality is abysmal.

Is this an OBS problem, or is this a problem with my TOZO NC9s just being incapable of using Stereo and the hands-free microphone simultaneously?

Edit:I added the most recent log file.

Bluetooth, right?
assuming yes, see plenty of prior threads on OBS Studio audio input device locking with Bluetooth devices, and implications for exactly your scenario [sorry not my issue, so I never paid much attention to any possible workaround/solution ... though I recall there was a recent other thread on same issue]

It seems like its a problem with my earbuds. I just found out that my earbuds are incapable of what I want them to do. I no longer need help.

Headphones != Hands free
It's diffrent mode, headphones only for playing (high quality), Hands free to both mic and play sound with lower quality.
It's not possible to run both modes.
