Beats Studio Buds w/ MacBook Air M1 2020: Sound cutting off every 2-3 minutes consistently

Hello community!

I just purchased my Beats Studio Buds and connected them with my MacBook Air M1 2020 for the first time. I am noticing that after every 2-3 minutes, the sounds keeps cutting off and it's very disruptive honestly. They were working fine with my iPhone 15 but it seems to be an issue only when I am listening to music on my MacBook. I have tried following the instructions on the following page but the problem isn't fixing:

If sound quality is reduced when using Bluetooth headphones with your Mac – Apple Support (UK)

Someone please tell me it's nothing wrong with my Beats Studio Buds and this problem is fixable because I literally just purchased them.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.6

FOUND THE FIX: It seems to be a common problem across all Mac users. Simply disconnect any connected wireless devices like mice, keyboards, etc. from your Mac, and the Buds should start working just fine. It's not a very convenient solution but seems to be the ONLY one unfortunately.

Guess, these are really not the best earbuds when it comes to good Bluetooth connectivity :(

Hi.

I see you use macOS Sonoma, I’ll recommend you to update it to macOS Sequoia.

So, I updated my macOS to Sequoia and the issue's still there :( It works perfectly fine w my iPhone, I don't understand why it's having an issue with my Mac.
