Windows 10: Bluetooth speaker does not playback smoothly

Hi everyone, I have a workstation precision 7560, I have noticed my Bluetooth headphone does not playback music or videos sound automatically as it should, it happens only under certain scenarios: Windows 11 Pro/23H2/22631.3296 1. Either someone calls on the Teams, it will activated after 2 ~3 seconds, and stay connected for 2 hours and play fine, if I disconnect and re-connect it will no longer works. 2. Or I open the Sound settings, and go either under Recording or Playback subtab, as long as the settings are open it will playback, if I close the window, I will no longer have playback. ac

Bluetooth speaker not playing

Hello Tanya,

Your Bluetooth speaker might be paired with your PC but not connected. You can try the following steps to manually connect it:

• Make sure your Bluetooth speaker is turned on.
• On the far right of the Windows taskbar, press and hold (right-click)
  Volume, and then select Playback devices.
• On the Playback tab, select the Bluetooth speaker, press and hold (or right-click) it, and then select
  Connect.
• Select your Bluetooth speaker, and then select Set default. Music should play on your Bluetooth speaker now.

Let us know if performing the steps makes any difference.

 

Bluetooth speakers paired but no audio playback

Hi,

The issue that you’ve encountered when playing music using a Bluetooth speaker on your
Windows 10 computer may be caused by some configuration or the device driver is not yet updated. To sort out your concern, we’d like to know the following information:

• Is the issue persisted if you play the music using a wired device?
• What are the troubleshooting steps you've done so far?
• Were there any changes that happened prior to the issue?
• Have you installed the latest update on your device?

To check for the latest update, go to Windows Update by clicking
Start > Settings > Update & security and click Check for updates. It will scan and install all the latest updates available for your device.

On the other hand, we suggest that you manage the Playback devices settings from the
Taskbar to verify if the issue is not related to it. To do this, you may follow the steps provided in this article on how to
fix Bluetooth problems in Windows 10: FAQ. Once you’re
on the page, you may expand and proceed with the steps from the Music doesn’t play over my Bluetooth speaker. How can I fix this option, and then complete the process. After completing the steps, you may check if you’re able to play music
using the Bluetooth device properly.

We’re looking forward to your response.

 

Windows 10 computer paired w/ bluetooth speaker, but doesn't send music to speaker

A possible solution to Bluetooth speaker playback issue I tried all the steps listed in several posting forums with no success. I finally found a solution after 3 hours of investigating. 1st several forums suggest updating drivers... but do not specify which drivers to update i.e. the Bluetooth device? (eg. bose audio, sony driver for sony Bluetooth headphones etc.), or the windows driver?

*** For me the solution was updating the Bluetooth driver from LENOVO's website (the laptop/computer manufacture's website) once the driver was installed the bluetooth playback through BOSE Bluetooth audio adaptor worked perfectly.

I understand not everyone will have a LENOVO laptop/computer however I think it is worth downloading the latest Bluetooth driver from the device you are streaming from.

Hope this helps!
