In the last few days Bluetooth audio has become intermittent when played through headphones (cuts out for a fraction of a second every 2 - 5 seconds). I've confirmed with two different sets (Anker and Bose). I ran the Windows troubleshooter and confirmed all effects are off. I've updated the driver for the headphones and installed the latest update for Windows (x64 Pro v1903). I still have the problem. Any tips appreciated.
The problem has never been fixed -- streaming audio from a bluetooth dongle in Windows 10 version 21H1 is broken -- choppy and completely unuseable. Based on what I've seen so far, it seems entirely probable that MS rolled out Windows 11 without bluetooth working. The fact that bluetooth works fine in (free) Ubuntu derivatives but doesn't in (expensive) Windows should drive more and more users to Linux; it's beyond absurd that MS leaves this major bug unaddressed!
