Bluetooth card pairing better

Is there a chance that a Bluetooth card might pair better with some wireless headphones?
I have had no luck with BT dongles. I have used 4 different brands.
I feel that I should be able to use BT wireless headphones.
The Altec Lansing headphones pair quite well with my Samsung S5, so it reasonable to think that Ubuntu could do the same.
I'm using Ubuntu Mate 16.04.

One dongle did not show in lsusb.

Can you give some more information about your question that relates it to Ubuntu?

What brand dongles have you used, can you edit the question to include the names and their entry from results of terminal commandlsusbwhen each dongle is attached?

The 0a5c:21e8 device should work fine unless you want to use low quality HFP/HSP audio. You could try pairing in terminal usingbluetoothctlfollowed bypower onandscan onthen it should display the MAC address of the headphones if they are in pairing mode then dopairfollowed by the exact MAC address of the headphones

Can you pair the computer with the phone? You should try the commandpair 54:BD:79:1C:57:9Das that might be the headset and 5C:F3:70:80:FF:DA is actually the MAC of your bluetooth dongle

The 0a5c:21e8 device should work fine unless you want to use low quality HFP/HSP audio. You could try pairing in terminal using
bluetoothctl followed by power on and scan on then it should display the MAC address of the headphones if they are in pairing mode then do pair followed by the exact MAC address of the headphones– Jeremy31
