    15.10 Bluetooth Headset Problems

    Hey guys, I'm having some problems with my bluetooth headphones and I was hoping someone would be able to help me out. Right now I can connect and pair and get the audio to work but at random intervals I will lose audio and in order to restore it I have to completely remove the device and reboot & repair in order to restablish the connection, it's really annoying when it happens ever 5 minutes or so but somedays I can get 2 or 3 hours without any problems.

    I was running blueman on 16.04 and getting the same issues but decided to downgrade to 15.10 because I was having a lot of other issues, but the bluetooth problem persisted.

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Hello charlton2142, I cannot help you with your problem but moving the thread here to the "Networking & Wireless" forum might get you some more attention. Also free free to bump your thread more often than weekly, perhaps once a day would help.

    If you are having disconnects from the headphones when using wifi post the result for
    Code:
    lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net
    Hopefully there is a bluetooth coexistence parameter that can be changed. After a disconnect, run
    Code:
    dmesg | tails
    and hopefully that will give a clue about why it disconnects

    I understand what it says but you should update to a supported version of Ubuntu as 15.10 goes end of life today

    However there is a module parameter for the wifi to enable bluetooth coexistence
    Code:
    echo "options ath9k btcoex_enable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
    Reboot
