Bluetooth disables and sound chops


I have a problem with my bluetooth headphones. When I power up my computer, connect my bluetooth headphones it works as ti should, but if I in a couple of minutes don’t listen to anything and then plays a youtube video the sound chops. To get it working again I have to either disconnect the computer or power off and turn on the headphones again.

An other thing I experience is, sometimes when I don’t use bluetooth it deactivates and the only way I can get it running again is to restart the computer.

First I thought it was a failure in my debian 9 because when I boot in to Windows 10 everything is fine. I then searched the net, it seams no one else has the same fail. Then I installed CentOS 8, same result. I hope some of you have an idea of what is wrong and can help me.

I think it has something to do with the driver but I’m not sure.

My system is a Acer Aspire E5-571 the Network/bluetooth controller is a Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 / AR9565 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)

Could be a powersaving issue.

Is there a particular reason you are running stretch, which is mostly EOL?
Are the headphones newer than stretch's release date?

The only reason I use stretch is because I have been to lazy to upgrade.
The headset is from March 2019 so yes thay are newer than stretch release date.

How do you know that? Usually wifi and bluetooth have power saving options by default.
