Bluetooth headphone issue with new Chromecast with Google Tv

by link43u

Listening with bluetooth headphone with new Chromecast with Google TV is a mess. When you pair your device with the headphone for the first tiime It works well. However if you turn off your headphone and turn it on again Chromecast connect to the device but doesn't send sound anymore even if you disconnect and reconnect no way it the sound doesn't work anymore. You have to forget the bluetooth headphone and pair it again and again again. I don't know if you are facing the same problem

Somewhat unrelated I was having a Bluetooth issues with using an xbox controller, seems like the signal is really weak and only worked well within three feet from the dongle, about 6 feet and playing became super laggy. Also geforce now kept constantly freezing. I had to return mine.

I second that. I have tried it with different headphones/earbuds. All behave the same with Chromecast. Definitely an issue with Chromecast.

Hi,

I've faced the same issue. As a workaround, after the bluetooth connection to my headphones is done but there's no sound playing through them, I press the "play" button on the headset and the connection works again. This way I don't have to re-pair them everytime.

Yup bit of a mess, also I’m experiencing very choppy audio on my low latency Bluetooth headphones. Tried moving it around the back of my TV to no avail. Can’t imagine it’d like being stuck in the back of my amp.
