    Bluetooth headphones rapid allow/disallow cycling post-W11 install


    I installed Windows 11 on my 4 month old Asus TUF Gaming F15 laptop this week. Since install I have been unable to use Bluetooth connected headphones. The headphones pair, but then the system sound output cycles between headphones & speakers very, very quickly, so neither work. Any troubleshooting comes back as unable to make the headphones the default & then the Audio settings pages crash.I have tried removing/adding the headphones pairing, checked/deleted/reinstalled all relevant drivers I can think of, the headphones work by bluetooth on electronics - including on other Windows 10 l

    Wireless Headphones & Bluetooth

    If your computer has Bluetooth it is very easy to setup your headphones. Just turn them on and go into the Bluetooth settings. Then look for your headphone in the list of devices. If they are listed you just need to pair them to the computer.
