I don't have an answer to your question, but just hoping to get more info: are you able to listen to music from Ubuntu 16.04 on you airpods via bluetooth? I didn't realize they were using standard protocols that Ubuntu could use.

I have the same problem with Airpods: In Ubuntu we can only see the AD2P bluetooth profile for the airpods. But there is no HFP bluetooth profile presented to use the microphone.

There is a related bug report here bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93898. The issue seems to be related to pulseaudio. Some report to have the microphone of their (non-Apple) equipment working when setting an option in/etc/pulse/default.pa. I have also tried to install pulseaudio from ppa. These efforts did not take me anywhere, unfortunately.
