Windows 10: Bluetooth Headphones Enter Sleep Mode When No Sound Is Playing

My problem is as simple as the title. By default, Windows 10 puts bluetooth devices into sleep mode after some period of inactivity. This is unacceptable for my current use case, as I need my current Bluetooth headphones to be both wireless and active at all times while in use. The battery may drain faster, but I can simply plug them in when I am not using them. As it stands, I am unable to hear short notification sounds, nor am I able to do audio work that involves starting and stopping audio files to listen to instructions in small chunks.It seems it was previously possible to disable Window

:)

 

Bluetooth headphone sound volume keeps changing.

I have a relatively new Bluetooth Pulse Echo headphone set and an Acer Aspire 3 notebook that has Windows 10 O/S. When I use the headphones with the notebook in wireless mode the sound volume alternates between normal and very low. I have run Windows Bluetooth fault finder and disabled sound enhancements to no effect. The headphones work fine in conjunction with my iPad however.
Could anyone suggest a solution for this problem please?

Stereo Bluetooth Headphones do not reproduce stereo sound

Bluetooth 4.x headsets (headphones with microphone) have two modes:
1. Stereo headset speakers with NO microphone
2. Mono headset speakers with microphone

I see in the listing for your headphones it shows a microphone. Make sure your the audio is configured correctly so that you have stereo headphone speakers.
