Usually, when you see this headphone model under the sound as an input device and an output device, you simply have to pair the headset to the antenna if you are using it for the first time. Unfortunately, you need to use a Windows computer to do this, but after that it will work under Ubuntu. (I tried the utility under wine, but it didn't detect the device).
Plug the reciever into a Windows computer, and download the pairing utility and start the utility.
Switch the headset on. Then, hold down the Volume up and Mute buttons on the headset until the LED blinks green quickly.
Then, click next on the pairing utility. After a few seconds, it should tell you the headset is ready to use.
When you unplug the receiver from the windows computer and plug it into the Ubuntu, you will have to switch the headphones off and then back on.
Thanks to this thread for the answer that eventually worked for me, and see this page for the pairing directions on the Logitech site.

I know this is necro. My old wired logitech went out and today I went to buy from Walmart a headset, all they had in the pc section was these h600. Amazing it's 9 years old, the profit margin on them must be high af now. Anyhow I'm Manjaro KDE Linux and they work perfectly out of the box, you just got to remember to turn them on with the slide switch. Next time I need to remember to look on the console aisle, because those headsets work too.
My system specs are:
Operating System: Manjaro Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0
Qt Version: 5.15.0
Kernel Version: 5.4.44-1-MANJARO
OS Type: 64-bit
Processors: 8 × AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor
Memory: 31.3 GiB of RAM
TL;DR Works great on Manjaro 2020 KDE no black magic required
This is my current setup with the wired JBL headset. Thinking of getting a wireless headset too and it just so happens that the H600 is bundled with the charging station in our country. Anyone here who got the same headset? What's your experience with it in terms of music, games, and chat?
Hey folks, I just bought a Logitech H600 wireless headset. It's quite a bit simpler and lighter than my previous headset (not to mention half the price.) I'm enjoying the headset as it is mostly used for voice chat/radio use but...
One thing I liked about my previous expensive/fancy headset is, it had a software driver that allowed me to monitor battery usage.
With the H600, all I have to go on currently is the LED on the headset. With the headset "off", the LED near the charging port blinks orange to let me know "charging". But I have no other way of determining how much charge the battery currently holds.
So I guess what I'm asking is, is there any software that would allow me to see the % charge of the battery in my H600 headset? I know it may be asking a lot for this budget headset but, I thought I'd ping you guys.
Thanks a lot.
