My hearing aids cannot connect with MacBook pro with sonoma - accessibility

My Advance 480 hearing aids made for iphone (works great with my iPhone) does not work with my MacBook Pro with High Sierra and a MacBook Pro with Sonoma. In the System preferences -> Accessibility there is no option for hearing aids like on the iPhone.

That's strange, on the iPhone you can connect the hearing aids and on the MacBook Pro not. If I want to communicate by FaceTime I have to get my 'old fashion' ear buds before I can use FaceTime.

Is there any solution for this problem?

MacBook Pro 15″

See information in macOS accessibility features for hearing - Apple Support including the following excerpt:


Note: Made for iPhone hearing devices can be paired only with select Mac computers with the M1 chip, and all Mac computers with the M2 or M3 chip. For a list of supported hearing devices and more information about Mac system requirements, see the Apple Support article List of Made for iPhone hearing devices.
