As the title says, I use my headphones attached via Bluetooth on my HP Laptop, and I filter it through FxSound.
Firstly - I LOVE FxSound. What an incredible difference…what an experience! Thank you!
Now - If there is no music or any audio being generated by the computer, FxSound will disconnect my headphones from the computer, and redirect the output to the laptop internal speakers. But then, my headphones will reconnect to Bluetooth, but FxSound does nothing.
Then the headphones disconnect, and reconnect, and disconnect and reconnect, etc etc etc…again, and again, and again.
FxSound is Gandalf throwing down on the Balrog, but with instant replay over and over.
It’s worth noting that I also have a soundbar plugged into the headphone jack, but that shows up as a separate “audio out” on FxSound.
To be able to get sound through my headphones again, I have to go through the connection and selection process to reconnect the headphones. Sometimes it only works if open or pop up the audio settings page. (really weird)
My deduction: Its not the headphones. Its the relationship between HP Bluetooth vs FxSound. And it ONLY happens on Bluetooth connected headphones.
This exact same scenario happens on both my Beats Studio3 and Bose Quiet Comfort headphones.
SIDE NOTE - On the Bluetooth settings page - the connection status… it sometimes continuously switches from connected to disconnected, almost as if there was a key being pressed on the keyboard.
Here is a quick video of what I mean:
Sound can be playing, no problem with the audio, but the connect/disconnect is totally wigging out.
Then, I discovered it will continue this way WHETHER THE BLUETOOTH IS ENABLED OR SHUT OFF.

I have set my preference to have the headphones be the primary “audio out”, hopefully this might resolve some issues…
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Can someone help me?
PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!!

I have a degree in computer information systems. I work for Cisco Networks and troubleshoot computers and networks for fortune 500 companies…I have a pretty good idea what I can do with computers…but on this, I am at a loss.
