Bluetooth audio streaming problem.

[Witte]

Hi,

There seems to be a software problem with apt-x audio streaming.

When i pair my Sennheiser MM 550-X to my Xperia Z1, all works fine at first. 

If i turn off the headphones and turn them back on again, the connection automatically gets re-established (also normal).

But then when i start to stream ... the audio is all choppy and there is a verry loud and fast ticking sound, the music is totally distorted, i can't even make up what song is playing.

If i pair the headphones again the problem is gone untill it automatically reconnects. Its a software bug for sure.

Same problem like the one described in the initial post, however repairing doesn't help in my case. No matter what I do, "the audio is all choppy and there is a very loud and fast ticking sound, the music is totally distorted, i can't even make up what song is playing." I also tried the BT fix app mentioned above, sadly without success...

Xperia Z1 compact & Philips CSS7235Y surround system (with apt-X)

Same problem as phonopile but with my z2. Please fix this Sony. Tnx!

I'm experiencing the exact same problem as nicost and phonopile  However I have connected my Z2 tablet to a 2013 Mazda 6 car system with no problem, connected to a JBL flip bluetooth speaker with no problem and an Onkyo 828 amplifier with no issue.  The one problem I have is with a Polk Woodbourne bluetooth speaker (This has aptx and the other devices don't) .  My thoughts are that the issue is with the apt-x integration as all my other apt-x capable devices connect no problem (LG G3 and Samsung Galaxy S4).  This is not something I can fix so please Sony release a fix for this issue or refund me my money for the tablet. 🙂

@Michael:

Thank you for the fix, the Xperia Bluetooth media app.  I have an Xperia XA1 and was facing the same issues, tried this app and finally no more muting of my audio in my Seat Ateca's media system.  I knew it wasnt the car and most likely the phone.  Mainly using Spotify in the car via bluetooth.

Thanks again
