Hey,

 

since I've updated my Surface Pro 7 to Windows 11 (about 2 weeks ago), I am experiencing a very weird bug with bluetooth audio. It's not that bluetooth audio is not working generally, it works fine, but every time that I pause a video or a song or any type of audio output for some time, and then press play, it takes 5-6 seconds until the audio on the headphones works again. Like for these 5-6 seconds I'm just hearing nothing although the video/song is properly playing. After these seconds, it works totally fine (no lag or so).

 

I hope that description of the problem was understandable, I didn't know how to formulate the discussion subject accurately. I've searched for solutions via Google but didn't find anything that's related to my problem, it's all related to general lags with bluetooth audio which I don't have.

 

The issue did never occur on Windows 10, but right after installing Windows 11 it always occured. I'm sure about that 'cause I was annoyed by that right from the start, so it definitely has to do with the update. I've experienced the problem with my Beats Studio Wireless mainly, but I have just connected my AirPod Pro too and have the same issue with them, so the issue is not device-related. I have deleted the Beats Studio from my bluetooth list and re-paired them, but it didn't help. Also restarted my Surface a couple times since I have Windows 11. These are the only "easy fixes" I thought could help, but I really don't know what else to do. Does anyone have an idea?
