[Bug 1589008] Re: Bluetooth freezing video playback In Ubuntu/Kubuntu 16.04

 

I'm also suffering from this same problem. Just tested with 4.7-rc6 (released today), and the problem has been resolved.
(There are other issues I'm experiencing with this kernel, so I will boot back to 4.4)

@Stephen, installing another kernel alongside your existing one is
rather easy, and does not require wiping your computer or a fresh
install. I followed the guide here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds#Installing_upstream_kernels_.28manually.29,
and then when I rebooted my computer, chose advanced options for Ubuntu,
and chose the kernel I wanted. Going back to the original kernel is one
reboot away.

@Joseph, do you happen to know if/ when 4.7 is scheduled to be released?

Title:
  Bluetooth freezing video playback In Ubuntu/Kubuntu 16.04

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In 16.04 when a bluetooth audio device is connected it freezes video
  playback and also no sound comes from online audio only streams. Issue
  does not exist with a wired headset.

  This issue does not exist with 15.10. All updates have been installed
  on 16.04 including backports but they have not fixed the issue.

  It is not browser specific and not website specific.

  It is not hardware specific as it affects my laptop with an intel 7260
  card and my pc with an intel 8260 card.

  The issue exists on both ubuntu and kubuntu 16.04.

  I have reported it on the ubuntu support forums and after
  investigation a moderator noticed changed in the kernel from 4.4 and
  4.2 that may becausing the issue and asked me to file a bug report.

  The ubuntu forum thread can be found here.
