Bluetooth Audio Stuttering on Macbook M1 Max (2021)

I'm trying to use my Macbook Pro with a monitor, but would like to use wireless peripherals. However, when I use bluetooth keyboard, mouse, and speakers, the audio from the speakers is very choppy. Is there a fix for this? I've tried a few of the different bluetooth settings fixes that I've found while looking for answers, but nothing works. Does the M2 or M3 have this issue? Might be time for an upgrade.

Mouse Lag When Connected To Bluetooth Headphones - 2022 MacBook Pro 13.3” M2 I am connecting logi Mx Master 3 via bluetooth. It works fine normally. But when headphones are also connected and some audio is being transmitted, the mouse lags horribly to the point it is impossible to use the mouse effectively. There is no issue with audio. Headphones tried: Logitech zone wireless Marshall monitor Note: If the headphones are connected, but no audio transfer, the mouse works fine. But if you get on a call or start music, the mouse starts to lag.

Bluetooth speaker not listed in Output despite being connected MacBook Air M1, Ventura 13.3.1 My JBL Bluetooth speaker is paired and connected with my MBA but the sound is played only by the MBA itself, not the JBL. The JBL speaker is not even listed in the Output section in the sound settings - only the MBA speakers. I have followed several tips including some commands in the Terminal as well as rebooting and re-pairing the devices but nothing works which is utterly frustrating since my MBA is not even a month old. Can anybody help me out?
