Windows 10: Bluetooth sound stuttering

I recently updated my laptop to windows 11. I have zero issues with my headphones playing music via Bluetooth from my phone, but as soon as I connect my laptop to my headphones or another speaker device the sound stutters. I've tried everything to resolve the problem. I've read numerous articles and nothing seems to work. Another issue is when my hand partially covers the headphone or speaker it stutters more. I wish that this issue can be resolved soon :respectfully,someone who enjoys listening to audio from their laptop when their phone is dead or out of arms length

Lumia 930 Denim update - Bluetooth music stutter

Having had a battle with stuttering sound tonight here you have my conclusions using Nokia 920:

• Stuttering only occured when playing music with Bluetooth connection
• NO stuttering playing music via phone's speakers (i.e Bluetooth OFF)

• This should prove that: Music being played isn't corrupted in any way (Ripped my own cd's for testing this)
• This is MAYBE a Bluetooth only-issue (but my tests indicate other...)

To make things more complicated, here's my (short) story:

I earlier had a small BT-speaker that worked flawlessly with my Nokia 920. Never had any stuttering at all.

Then I bought a new BT-speaker...

It could be that the new patch arrived (and got installed) before I bought the new speaker, and that's the reason why the stuttering is appearing.

But now I'm getting the stuttering but I have ruled out some more conditions for when the stutterings occurs. Some of them seems to contradict others in this post - but this is what's happening to me!

This is what's happening with Bluetooth connected and wifi turned off :

• Streaming audio from my NAS to the phone = No stuttering at all
• Streaming audio from Swedish public radio(I.E. random website) = No stuttering at all

So my conclusion is that BT COULD be working as intended (at least for me) but I get the stuttering ONLY when I play stuff stored on the phone

 

Sound stuttering

I tried so many different things the last few days after giving up I came across a post on another website, someone suggested to update the wireless LAN driver.

So far I have had no stuttering of any sound be it music on itunes or netflix.
