  1. BT Earphones Audio Issues in Stereo Mode!


    I'm having a very annoying problem with my Bluetooth EarphonesOneplus Buds Z and it started when I had updated on my Windows 10It was some Windows 10 feature update.Here is my problem:Whenever I use my BT Earphone the Music playing intermittently stops playing for a second or two and then comes back on. [ Note : The music does NOT pause in the actual sense, the track keeps on playing, but the audio isn't played by the buds ].Surprisingly it doesn't happen with my any other BT earphones but I think there is some problem from Microsoft's side since it began since the windows feature update.

    Why does Spotify take control of my Bluetooth earphones' stereo output?

    I own Bluetooth earphones, which I have paired with my Windows 10 laptop.

    I can happily listen to audio from various different sources, until I play music through Spotify. Once I do, Spotify seems to completely hijack the stereo output device. If I pause the music and attempt to listen to another source (such as YouTube), I can no longer hear the audio playback despite seeing the amplitude bar move in the Windows sound settings. However, if I resume the Spotify music whilst the other sound source is still outputting, I can hear the other sound in the background of Spotify's output. Without restarting the earphones, I have found two ways of restoring the ability for other applications to output sound:

    • If I right click on the earphones' Hands-Free device in the Windows playback device list and select "Test", I briefly hear the test output via the Hands-Free device and then suddenly the stereo output from the non-Spotify application continues.
    • If I close Spotify whilst music is playing (and so the other app's audio can be heard in the background), the audio from the non-Spotify application can be heard again. However, if I close it whilst Spotify is paused, the non-Spotify audio does not resume.

    I've found a hotfix in which disabling "Show desktop overlay when using media keys" from the Spotify settings prevents this issue from occuring, but what is causing this strange behaviour?

    Note: I've disabled the ability for applications to take exclusive control of both the "Stereo" and "Hands-Free" playback devices for my earphones, to no avail.

    Hi,



    This issue could be due to device drivers that needs to be updated. To provide you with appropriate troubleshooting, please provide the following information:



    • Have you made any recent changes on the devices?
    • Have you tried other earphones on your Windows?
