I started having issues only yesterday, last iOS upgrade is a few days older than that, I do not remember the exact day when I did the update, but it was definitely not anytime yesterday, morning calls were fine, afternoon calls started falling apart:
- iPhone 15 about 2 weeks old, running latest iOS 17.1.1
- Apple 2nd gen Airpods Pro, about 3 months old
- Sony WH-1000XM4 about 1.5 years old
Batteries are all charged well enough.
Symptoms as follows:
- issues appear to be restricted to Hands Free / 2 way Bluetooth profile only
- I get audio drop outs every 3-5 minutes or so, it sounds like a buffer is overflowing, reseting and then starting over... as in "audio is fine for some time, then suddenly starts breaking up, lots of stutter, repeats etc. for about 10 seconds, then it snaps back to good"
- in the High Quality (or whatever it's called) profile I have no issues whatsoever = can listen to music, watch videos all day long
I use MS Teams for work at least 3 hrs a day. It's quite frustrating to have to resort to speaker. I hope this issue is identified, addressed and fixed soon. This is the first time that I'm experiencing this sort of thing.
