Windows 10: Bluetooth Speaker "Connected music", Will no longer Pause Video with Windows 10

Hello,


Up until recently, I used my Bluetooth speaker to hear audio for movies, music and video tutorials. It is a Wonderboom speaker with a few buttons. It has volume and a pause/play button it also skips forward if double pressed quick. While watching videos, listening to music, etc. I could use the pause/play button to quick pause videos, and then press again to continue play. For some reason this feature is no longer working when connected to my computer it does when connected to my phone, so is a computer issue. Also, after pause for awhile, the audio will stop coming through Bluetooth speaker. I am Using Windows 10.


A few things that had changed since it worked properly:

1. I had installed Dropbox onto my desktop.

2. I noticed "Connected music" in Bluetooth settings. It used to say "Connected" only when connected. Image attached


Any idea how to get the pause feature back? My thinking is it has something to do with "connected music" being an issue.


Appreciate any input.


Thanks,

Fill

Bluetooth speakers no longer connect since Windows 10

Hi,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

I suggest you to disconnect all other media devices, speakers and headphones as shown in picture and only connect the Bluetooth device and check if the issue persist. That could be the reason.

I suggest you to first of all run the troubleshooter and check to find any issues and fix it.

• Search and type Troubleshooting.
• 
  Click on Troubleshooting and select the
  view all option on the left pane.
  
• 
  Click on Playing Audio troubleshooter and follow the prompts
  

If the issue still persist, follow the steps mentioned in the link below.

Hope this helps. Get back to us for further queries with Bluetooth device. We are happy to help!

 

Can't select paired bluetooth speaker as sound output (Windows 10)

I just got a new bluetooth speaker, an Urbanears Stammen (concrete grey)

I can connect to it from my phone, using Bluetooth, and play back sound no problem. But I can't get my Windows 10 laptop (Dell XPS 15) to use it as a playback device.

I can connect and pair to it no problem, as you see in the screenshot below





It also shows up under bluetooth in the device manager. It's not listed under "Audio inputs and outputs", which I thought it should be, but I can see it under "Sound, video and game controllers".





But I can't select it as a playback device





I found this relevant superuser question: Windows 10 computer paired w/ bluetooth speaker, but doesn't send music to speaker

And I tried the suggested steps listed there, but nothing helped

Any further ideas I could try?
