Dual-boot Bluetooth with LE QC35II headphones on Windows / Linux inconsistent or not working

I've been having a terrible time connecting my Bose QC35II (LE) to Windows 11 when I also have a Linux Mint partition on a separate M.2 drive for months. It was the same story on Windows 10, Debian/Arch. The Linux connection works fine, I just disconnect and reconnect the headphones and it works. The issue is on Windows, it takes me forever to reconnect my headphones. I uninstall every Bluetooth device driver under device manager - Microsoft Bluetooth enumerator, Bose QC35 II drivers, everything. Unplug my Bluetooth dongle, plug it back in. I reset the headphones, unpair all devices, even fact

This question is one of 3 reports of the same problem:
