Windows 10 Bluetooth Headset issue - Stuttering or breaking audio input & output

[AbhinavBhandawat]

Hi,

I have 2 Bluetooth headsets

• Samsung level U
• Philips SHB7250

In both the wireless/bluetooth headsets I face the following problem:

Problem 1:

The output audio breaks in all the following cases

• Listening to music on any application (VLC, Windows Media Player, etc)
• Watching movie or any video

Description of "the audio breaks": I can hear sound for few random seconds and than its totally gone for few random seconds and then it automatically comes back and the cycle goes on...

Problem 2:

The input audio from mic breaks (for very small fraction of seconds) while recording video, thus producing a garbled or stuttering audio recording.

The recorded video has absolutely no issues. I have tried the following apps and the issue is same everywhere:

• The cyberlink screen recorder 4

Both the headsets work perfectly with the following android phones

• Samsung Galaxy S8
• Samsung Galaxy S7 edge
• Vivo V17 Pro

No issues with audio playback via speakers or wired headset.

The platform specifications:

• Hardware Specifications:
  • HP Pavillion x360 Convertible 14-ba073tx
  • Intel core i5-7200U CPU @ 2.5 GHz
  • RAM 8 GB
  • 64 bit OS and Processor
  • Pen & Touch Support with 10 touch points
  • 256 GB SSD (OS and all softwares are installed on this SSD C
  • 1TB SSHD (8 GB SSD integrated)
  • Intel Wireless Bluetooth Device (I believe bluetooth and wifi are combined in this single chip)
  • Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265
• Software Specifications
  • Windows 10 Pro 1909 build 18363.815
  • All latest and updated drivers from windows update
  • Also tried installing latest drivers from the manufactures website (HP support assistant)

Few Questions I would like to answer in advance:

• Are you also experiencing the sound issue when using a wired headphone?
  • NO
  • No issues while using any bluetooth speakers (used only for output audio), problem is only with voice and music both enabled bleutooth device
• Have you made any recent changes or installed updates prior to this issue?
  • I regularly update my computer. And the problem persists
  • I have done a fresh installation of windows 10 19H2 with latest drivers being automatically downloaded using windows updater.
  • Have also tried
  • Have tried on 2 laptops
• What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
  • 
• The Device manager doesn't shows any issues:
