Just use a decently recent distro or update to pipewire (and recent kernel). Pulseaudio is basically not where the good things are done anymore. It's been more than a year or 2 already that the sony phones have microphone working properly.
It is a hard moving bunch of pieces that needed to be in place. The user libraries (pulseaudio or pipewire) the bluez stack and the kernel. For a while things were almost working on the first parts but there were problems on the kernel side then the kernel received patches and it finally was able to support the good audio codec.
(I hate saying this, but) I'm on arch, and using pretty up-to-date versions of pulse and wireplumber, but no dice. I've tried the LTS kernel, still no dice. I think it's a regression that has somehow largely gone unnoticed, because I cannot find any bug reports about it, despite the headphones being quite popular
That could be a combination of something only you have or really just a bug unreported. I would recommend trying to open a bug report and maybe more people can chime in and help.
I've personally had a bunch of regressions and problems with some versions, but it's been fixed for my specific devices. Got 2 codecs for input/mic I can choose and the others for sound output including ldac working nicely.
It's hard to make a bug report, since I can't find the specific version that caused the regression, and it's hard to downgrade that single package to do a binary search to find the regression without altering all the system packages. It's a kind of "damned-if-you-do" catch-11 situation
