[Z3 compact] Bluetooth headphones disconnecting after unlock screen

I've just encountered a strange issue while listening to music over bluetooth on my Sony MDR-10rbt headphones (connected in high quality mode, aptx codec used). It's fine until you try to unlock te screen, it then immediatly switches to play the music over the normal speakers at maximum volume. At home not so much of an issue but in a quiet office environment very annoying, even more so if people don't tend to appreciate my choice of music
The strange thing is, in the walkman software it still says it's connected to the headphones (throw icon glowing) and even the BT icon in the bar is white and not light grey so it's still connected as far as the phone is concerned.
The Z3 compact is on 23.0.A.2.105 and the headphones are fully charged.
I also have a Z2 (the Z3 compact is supposed to replace it), that does have the same behaviour. That's running 17.1.1.A.0.402.

  • Bluetooth headphones disconnecting after pausing video content on Yosemite.

    MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014)
    Yosemite 10.10.3 (latest public beta)
    (short) My Beats Studio Wireless headphones will disconnect after pausing video content.
    (long) My headphones will connect without issue. However, after watching video content (either on Safari or QuickTime), the headphones will disconnect from bluetooth. To re-connect, I must turn the headphones off then back on. I have read the bluetooth faqs and there are no solutions addresses this issue. I have had moderate results by removing com.apple.bluetooth.plist and re-pairing my devices, yet, the problem returns after watching video in Safari. This problem only persists on OS X. I have tested the headphones with Windows and iOS and they work as intended with no dropouts.  Any ideas?

    Hi tlacroixia,
    Thank you for the response. Because this is not happening when your computer goes to sleep, the first troubleshooting steps I would recommend would be to reset your computer’s PRAM and SMC. Please follow the instructions located in the attached two articles below to complete these steps, and again, please let me know if the issue continues.

  • Bluetooth headphones disconnect randomly

    Hi,
    I have been using some bluetooth headphones (Sennheiser MM-550X) for a while now and while they are playing audio they stay connected, however if I stop the playback sometimes they disconnect and the Mac reverts to the internal speakers. I'm not sure if it is the headphones disconnecting because there is no audio coming through or the OS disconnecting them because there is no audio being output or if it is something else. Also it is very random, sometimes they can be sitting on the desk with no audio playing for an hour and will stay connected, other times they disconnect after just a minute or two.
    Anyone got any ideas on how to keep them connected at all times when they are switched on?
    Thanks.
    Kind regards,
    Andrew.

    I have this same problem on my mac with my bluetooth headphones (Kinivo BTH220).  As long as sound is playing from my mac they stay connected.  If sound stops, the sound output switches over to interal speakers.  For example: If I'm listening to Spotify, the headphones disconnect after every track, I can reconnect them without any errors but it's super annoying.
    I'm on an iMac, OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8)

  • When Bluetooth headphones disconnect, applications become muted until next launch

    When I disconnect my Bluetooth headphones, either by choice, or due to a dead battery, the applications that were routing audio to the headphones become muted until the next time they are launched. Reconnecting the Bluetooth headphones doesn't unmute them.
    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Use an application with audio going out to Bluetooth headphones.
    2. Disconnect headphones.
    Expected Results:
    Audio returns to Mac builtin speakers
    Actual Results:
    Application is muted until next launch. Reconnect headphones, and the app is _still_ muted.
    Anyone else experience this problem? It's especially annoying when I'm playing video games that can't be quickly relaunched without losing progress.
    System:
    Bose AE2W Bluetooth Headphones
    Mac OS X 10.9.1 Mavericks
    13" mid-2013 MacBook Air, Intel Core i7

    If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.

  • Podcast app pauses after unlocking screen

    After installing the latest update I've been experiencing an issue where the podcast app will pause whatever podcast is playing after the screen is unlocked. Is anybody else experiencing this issue? Any solutions?

    With the latest update to this idiotic and pointles app (Apple just can't admit that they're wrong and put the podcasts back in "Music/Audio"), they fixed SOME BUT NOT ALL of the stuttering and pausing when going from lock screen to the phone menu (it's also bled over into the music as well).  I mean, it's better than before in that it now happens 10% of the time instead of 70% of the time.
    Also with the latest update, when deleting a podcast episode from the phone in itunes, a "ghost" of the podcast stays on the phone requiring a second step in the deletion process (a third if include also deleting the episode from itunes itself).  Doing a bang-up job there, guys, of forcing people to use something that noone wanted/needed, and then continually making that thing worse.

  • IPhone Safari launches itself after unlocking screen

    This started happening recently. Ive noticed after using safari and putting the device to sleep after waking it and unlocking the screen safari launches. When it went to sleep safari was not running, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't even in the list of recently used apps. On top of it, all the tabs I previously had opened are missing as well.
    Ive cleared safari cookies, history etc... Completed a hard reset, cleaned the screen, everything I can think of short of restoring factory defaults. This is also happening to a family members iPhone as well. 4S and 4 respectively.
    Anyone else seen this odd behavior?

  • Bluetooth mouse disconnects after sleep in W540, Windows 8.1

    I have paired a bluetooth mouse and it works fine - until computer has been in sleep. After sleep the mouse does not work until I go into settings - Change PC Settings - PC and Devices - Bluetooth. I do not have to do anything, it just connects when "Manage Bluetooth Devices" opens.
    I have looked into forum and swithed off the "allow the computer to turn off device to save power" in device manager for device Intel Wireless Bluetooth 4.0 + HS adapter. No effect.
    I have Windows 8.1. The mouse worked fine in my older HP laptop with Windows 7.1

  • Bluetooth Headphones Audio Delayed after Updating to Yosemite

    Ever since I upgraded to OS X Yosemite my Bluetooth headphones have started having pretty drastic delays on my iMac.  When I first start up the computer it seems normal, but after a half an hour or so, I have more than a 2 second delay.
    I googled it and found that lots of people have this problem, but I haven't found any fixes.  Is there anything I can do??

    I Just got an update on my bug report from Apple yesterday. They think they've fixed the bug in the next release 10.10.8.2.
    Hopefully this does the trick and it's just a matter of time Before we all get the update.
    I Havent been able to confirm the fix, but it's something!

  • Bluetooth headphones not working after ios6 update

    I have the RF-MAB2 Rocketfish headphones. I also have an Iphone 3gs.
    Both are running their latest firmware releases. After updating the iphone to IOS6 the bluetooth headphone no longer would work.
    It showed paried with the iphone but music and other apps would not play any sound through the headphones.
    I had to go onto the iphone, forget the device and readd it. This has resolved the issues.

    I am talking about the wired headphone which received with the phone.
    The problem is after the upgrade to ios6 the voice is only coming from one side ( right side ) of the headphone while listening to music.
    However if I use apps like Viber, WhatsApp I can hear voice from both the side of the headphone.
