Bluetooth device keeps getting disconnected during Teams meetings

Hi,

I use the wireless JBL Endurance Sprint Headphones to connect to meetings on my Teams app on my work laptop.

This was working fine until a few days ago. But, from the past few days my headphones gets disconnected every few seconds.

This is terribly agonizing - I can't hear the audio and get tuned out from  the conversation. I need to turn on my headphones again every time it gets disconnected. I end up losing parts of the conversation and it gets extremely awkward frequently requesting the other person to repeat what they said.

I initially thought it might be my headphones, but it works really well with the same laptop on other applications. Works fine on other devices too.

I tried updating driver software for my Bluetooth device. Looks like it's up-to-date.

I have no idea how to fix this.

Similar questions had answers to uncheck the "Disable bluetooth device for power savings" under Power Management Tab ( Device Manager -> Bluetooth-> Adapter-> Properties). I don't see this tab anymore. 

Please help fix this ASAP.

    They CAN, but they won't.

    Same issue here on an HP ZBook 17 G4. Whenever I'm in a Teams call, my Bluetooth devices drop. Sometimes it's my Bose 700 headset. Other times it's my Logitech MX keyboard and/or mouse. Or all three could **** out.

    Toggling Bluetooth off then back on again sometimes fixes the issue. Other times, I have to restart my PC for them to work temporarily in a Teams call. One thing is certain though, all of the Bluetooth devices magically work again as soon as I exit the Teams meeting.

    The only work around I have found, with my JBL Everest 700s, is to have the headphones connected still to my phone, and play/pause Spotify on the device to keep it engaged.

    Or run YouTube on my PC, and do the same thing, every 10 mins flick over and hit play/pause.

    This way the headphones never turn off.

    Not ideal, but a workable solution.
