Having Bluetooth Stuttering Issues on Windows 10

Anonymous

As of recent, when connecting any pair of bluetooth headphones or devices, I would get stuttering problems where when using bluetooth headphones, the audio would frequently cut in and out randomly, and it would frequently disconnect, even when it was fully charged. And yes, I've tried to fix the issue by disabling audio enhancements, but it hasn't helped at all. Additionally, I've had problems with other bluetooth devices where they would also frequently disconnect. Is there a fix to these problems?

    Hello,

    Please refer these suggestions, see if they helps you:

    1. Run Bluetooth troubleshooter from Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot.
    2. Update the Bluetooth driver to latest version.
    3. If updating driver doesn't worked, try reinstalling it back. Open Device Manager, right click on the Bluetooth driver, select Uninstall. Then click Action > Scan for hardware changes.
    4. Try disable audio enhancements. Right click on sound icon on taskbar, click Sounds > Playback > right click on your speaker > Properties > Enhancements. Check Disable all enhancements, click Apply. See if this resolves issue. If not, enable only one of them at a time and sequentially check, if this does the trick.
    5. Another suggestion, go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printers. Right click on your Bluetooth device, select Properties > Services tab> and disable Remote control.

    Hope something helps!

    I'm having the same issue.

    Just finished building a brand new PC with Windows 10 Pro 64 bit (v. 10.0.18362.387), 32GB DDR 3600 RAM, AMD Ryzen 3900X, Gigabyte Aorus Xtreme x570 Mobo, Aorus Xtreme Geforce RTX 2080 TI Graphics Card and a set of Audeze Mobius 3D Bluetooth Headphones, as well as a set of Edifier S100DB BT Speakers

    I am able to connect to both the headphones and speakers from every other BT capable device in my house (Macbook Pro Laptop, iPhone, Samsung Galaxy S10, etc...), but when trying to connect to my new PC, its a garbled, stuttering, hiccuping mess...

    I have tried everything listed in this thread and in your post:

     * running BT troubleshooter

     * disabling Hands-Free Telephony and Remote Control under services

     * uninstalling and re-installing BT drivers

     * disabling audio enhancements

    but to no avail...

    Its been almost 10 years since the last time I used a PC and now I remember why... It's utterly laughable that something as basic as a BT connection, which every other technology company on the face of the earth has mastered for over a decade, is STILL an issue with Windows... the ONLY reason I built a PC was so I could get back into PC gaming and the last thing I want to do is spend HOURS fiddling within the guts of the OS to try and get a simple **** BT headset connection to work...

    What a flipping joke...

    I had the same issue and think I found the solution for me. The headphone was paired simultaneously with my smartphone and my laptop (W10). This caused the problem. Now as I disabled bluetooth on my smartphone and I disconnected and repaired the headphones from/to my laptop, they work perfectly again. Hope this will help you guys!! Good luck!!!!

    I think i just solved my issue. I updated the Wifi driver.

    Windows 10 : Settings -> Network and Internet -> Wi-Fi -> change adapter options (this will open the control panel)

    Control Panel \ Network and Internet \ Network Connections

    Double clik on your Wi-Fi -> properties -> configure -> driver -> update driver

    Hope it helps someone
