Sony Smart accessories and Xperia Z issues

I have the Smartwatch and Smart wireless headset pro paired to my Xperia Z. I have noticed a couple of issues.

Smartwatch:
Disconnects quite a bit and requires me to swipe up on the watch screen to make it reconnect. I would say today it happened 30-40 times in a 10 hour period. Haven't had any issue with the watch like that on any of my other devices. Anyone else had this happen? Smartwatch is running the latest firmware.

Smart wireless headset pro:
It paired fine to the XZ and seems to work without issue. The thing I have noticed though is the Throw icon will pop up in the notification area and allow me to toggle between phone and the headset, or at least appears that way. If I change it to the headset via the throw function nothing changes. Sound continues based on how I have it setup in the bluetooth headset settings. Even stranger is if I disconnect the headset by turning it off the Throw icon will still be there. When I open it the headset will disappear from the options and when I go back to the home screen the throw icon is gone from the notification area but will return some time later again showing the headset even though it has been off that whole time.

Not sure why the throw options would show up if they won't change how the audio is handled or why it keeps showing up after I have disconnected the device. Anyone else with either of these accessories having any issues?

It could be a jellybean issue.

Those of us in the Nexus 7 forum had issues with bluetooth with jellybean, audio lag, skip & disconnects.

Seems to be much better after the latest jellybean update.

Didn't have the issue with my TL running the LT30p JB update though.

And tonight I unpaired the headset from the phone completely and turned the headset off. The phone still popped up the throw notification and had the headset listed there. This was after a reboot too.

My Smart watch randomly disconnects to, sometimes it works for hours no issues other time disconnects every 2-3 mins, again both running the latest firmware.

Also when i restart the phone liveware/ (Smart Connect?) FC`s a couple of times before it settles.
