Windows 10: Windows 11 audio stuttering when playing through bluetooth speaker

Hi everyone,I have just built a new pc and decided to use Windows 11. I have experienced frequent audio stuttering and chopping when using my Bluetooth speaker JBL Charge 4. When I connect my earphone through the 3.5mm headphone jack the audio works fine. I have tried troubleshooting, disabling audio enhancements, updating drivers, and everything I have seen on the Internet. Is this just a permanent bug on Windows 11 and I must go back to Windows 10 or is there may be a way to fix it?Thanks!

Bluetooth Audio stuttering

Recently upgraded my PC and reinstalled Windows 10.

I run my main audio through a Razer Leviathan bluetooth speaker and a headset through the optical connector for comms.

Never had any issues until recently, where any audio stutters when coming through the Bluetooth speaker. There's no stutter through the headset for any audio (comms, music, youtube, netflix etc) and there's no stutter if I connect the speaker to another
device such as my phone and hold it at the other side of the house. I recently bought a USB Bluetooth adapter in case it was something faulty on my new motherboard, but the issue persists with this device too.

I've tried reinstalling the drivers and reconnecting for Bluetooth and the speaker, but the problem persists. If I move the speaker, sometimes the signal cuts out entirely or it can be fine, but it has not been moved from the same spot on my desk prior to
the issue occurring so it's not an issue of the location of the speaker. There's no WiFi (cabled and disabled the WiFi option) and just a desk surface for the signal to pass through. Again, it could connect to my phone on the other side of the house and play
audio fine.

I'm thinking its a software/driver problem at this point.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

 

Bluetooth speaker stuttering

Hello - I am having an issue with a set of Creative bluetooth speakers (Creative T3250) on my Asus laptop. The audio stutters, sometimes just every so often, other times it won't stop stuttering. For bluetooth, I use a bluetooth dongle.

The stuttering happens regardless if I am playing an Mp3 or using youtube. Distance shouldn't be an issue as I tested the speakers with about 1 meter between the speaker and computer

What I find odd is that I have another bluetooth speaker, the Bose Soundlink Mini which works just fine. With the Bose, I haven't experienced any stuttering unless I move the speaker quite some distance from the computer.

When I disconnect the Creative speakers, the audio plays just fine from the computer itself. And, like I said, it plays just fine from the Bose speaker. I have tried totally forgetting the Bose connection in case that was causing interference with the Creative
speaker but there was no change.

I also have a wireless mouse with it's own usb connection, so I don't think that should be an issue. I tried disconnecting it anyway but no change to the stuttering.

I did connect by Android phone to the Creative speakers. There was still some stuttering at first but overall, it was much better than the computer. I was able to use songza and that seemed OK. Youtube had more stuttering.

Also, when using the computer with the speakers, the more I was doing on the computer (opening files, typing, etc.) the more the stuttering seemed to happen. Perhaps a coincidence but I was able to watch a streamed show without issue. But playing music while
working seems impossible.

I see that others have issues similar to this with other windows platforms. I looked at some of the other fixes but so far nothing has really worked.

Anyone else have similar experiences? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

R

 

How to play audio/music through speakers AND bluetooth speakers


I have a pair of Creative T40 speakers plugged into the 3.5mm jack on my laptop. I got hold of a bluetooth speaker and that was recognised straight-away.

I have installed a large monitor (32inch) to the laptop on which I work as well as watch movies and play games. I was wondering if I could setup that audio, be it music, gaming audio or movie audio could be played through BOTH sets of speakers.

The main T40's are on either side of the monitor and I have the bluetooth speaker behind me on a shelf. That would, kind-of, give me surround sound. Or when I have people over I could get better sound if I could just move the bluetooth speaker to a different part of the room.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thank you.
