Google Home Mini + BT speaker = stuttering music

[LidaFlorida]

I encountered stutter when broadcasting music from GHM to my BT speaker. It's like buffering every second. With the Internet connection everything is ok. The router is located near the GHM. When connecting via BT to the phone or through AUX with any other source, my Marshall Acton plays music without any problems. The problem occurs only when the music is broadcast from the GH Mini. It started a couple of days ago. Up to this point, there were no problems for a week. It happens randomly, it can play an hour without stammering, and then start, or vice versa. The GHM itself plays without problems. Tried TuneIn and Google Music. I also tried to reset GHM.

Has anyone encountered this problem?

The same thing has been happening for me as well. It only occurs when playing to a Bluetooth speaker. Playback via the Google Home Mini speaker itself is fine and it is right next to the wifi router.
What firmware are you on? Mine are on 1.32.118652. I think it's a preview firmware so it may be a bug in the firmware as nothing I do has made it any better and it was working fine before and has only started over the last few weeks.

The same version. Do you remember what version was before the problems started?

I bought the Home Mini yesterday and found the same problem. Any update about it?

Same

Same here. Stuttering music. Thought I was the only one and there was something wrong with my BT speaker. Stuttering music. FW 1.32.118652

Managed to get it working by unpairing and forgetting, and re-pairing. Now it happens every time my BT speaker goes into sleep mode.

More irritating is that when this happens the Google Home Mini defaults back to its own speaker instead of trying to reconnect.

This is firmware basics. Let's hope they iron this out.

My BT speaker will start to studder with about 25% battery left now or when it's actually plugged in. Fresh charge will run fine.

I'm having this issue too. I'm at the latest update at the time and using Harman Kardon Aura speaker
