Windows 10: My mic Bose 700 headphone stops working each 15 minutes during videocalls.

I have a Bose 700 headphone which is connected via bluetooth on my Window 10 laptop. Very 15 minutes my mic stopt working and all I have to do is, leave the videocall and participate again. This happens not only I have a videocall on Teams but also with Discord.


I don't encounter the same problem when I'm connected to my phone and have videocalls via my phone + Bose headset.


I checked all the settings and made sure that everything works on my headphone. I also asked advice from the shop where I bought the Bose headphones, together with them I tried different things, nothing helped. But if I connect with a cable, then I don't encounter the same problem. So it should be something with the bluetooth & Windows.


Could you please help me with this? As you can imagine these days, we mostly use the videochat function!

Bose headphones stopped working after October update

I don't have the QC 35 headphones, but I've got the Bose NC 700 and Bluetooth is working fine under 1903. Anyway no need to rollback just un-pair and re-pair the device and hopefully that'll solve the problem. BTW I've got a few devices paired to my PC and none were interrupted when moving to 1903.

E6 and Bose Headphone

Hello,



I have bought the new Nokia E6-00 today and I like it a lot! There is just one thing:

I can't connect my Bose headphones.



I have the 'Bose on-ear headphones' with the 'mobile phone microphone-integrated cable'



When I connect the headphone to the E6 it says: "accessory not supported". I get no sound through the headphones, and the headphones mic doesn't work (so nothing works). Instead the speaker and mic on the E6 itself keep on working.



Am I doing something wrong, or is it a possibility that this will be fixed in an upcoming software update?





thnx for your support
