Stuttering audio after upgrade to 24.04

That's almost what I have. In particular, my Server-2 looks just the same.

$ inxi -Axxz

Hello,


I had the same issue with my jbl earphones, everything was working great on ubuntu 22 / linux mint 21 but once i upgraded to mint 22 / ubuntu 24, the sound is stuttering and choppy. I tried a lot of suggestions on the forums but nothing changes.


The solution for me was to :


1) Disable my normal wifi (2.4 Ghz) and keep only the 5GHZ (SSID_5GHZ) through my router config interface.
2) Change the priority of pipewire, pipewire-pulse, wireplumber to high using the system monitor (right click, change priority ...).
3) Exit blueman-manager completely and reboot my laptop. (log out was not enough for my case).


Please let me know if this helps.


Kind regards

Thanks oiowise! It seemed to resolve itself over time, likely with an update. I've since wiped the drive and reinstalled from scratch as well, and am having no audio problems now either.
