How do I get LDAC / aptX working with a Bluetooth device on Ubuntu 22.04?

I've got a few devices that support LDAC or aptX that are using SBC when connected to Bluetooth in Ubuntu. I saw somewhere that PulseAudio should support those in version 15. Ubuntu 22.04 ships with version 15 but it seems to still use SBC. How do I get Ubuntu 22.04 to use LDAC or aptX?

The codecs in question are simply not installed by default. If you want them, all you need to do is:

sudo apt install -y gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad

A restart is probably needed afterwards.
