Bluetooth audio stutter... but only with Cambridge Audio Minx Go

Hi all,

All my Bluetooth devices work great with my new Minx Go Bluetooth speaker....except my Nexus 7. It all pairs fine and plays ok, except that any interaction with the touchscreen results in terrible c.one-second or so audible stutter coming through the Minx speaker (sounds like a vocoder in slow motion!).

This happens regardless of music app used (I have bubbleupnp, meridian, and Google music). Doesn't matter if wifi is on or off, or even if I am streaming from the nexus or my NAS server.

The Minx works fine with my laptop, HTC Desire (Gen 1), Huawei Ascend P6. My BT headphones and keyboard work fine.

I have a Nexus 7 2012 running Kitkat.

This is the first time I've had any BT issues...

Any ideas please anyone?

Thanks in advance.

 

Thanks guys for your help and advice.

I tried turning off the wifi again, and it still had no effect on the BT issue. I will look at the apps running in the background and I'll also try starting the tablet in safe mode to see if that turns up anything. I'll report back my findings in case it helps someone else.

Happy New Year both

 

Hi guys, I FOUND THE ANSWER!

As it turns out, it's really simple:

You need to turn off the Touch Sounds and Screen Lock Sounds - then it works fine, regardless of what apps are running (changing the sound to "none" does not work).

If you have keyboard click sound enabled (I never do) then logically it follows that this would probably also need doing.

I rebooted into Safe Mode first to ensure minimum apps were running and then killed some to see if there were any issues there, but I'm pleased to say there were not.

What a great start to the New Year!
