I have a problem with my Bluetooth headphones Genius HS-940BT on my Asus X555U notebook with Ubuntu 17.10. When headphones are VERY close to the notebook I am usually able to pair it with the notebook.
But, when I put it to my head or generally take it a bit further from the computer the signal is lost and the sound is switched back to the notebook. On Windows 10, I don't have ANY troubles with that on same situation.
I will gladly add any necessary output of Unix command if be needed.
Thanks for any help :)

OK, after notebook shutdown and start, the problem is back. And now, even bluez reinstallation, headphones don't work.
EDIT 3:
After all attempts, this one helps - Ubuntu 17.10 - Bluetooth headphones don't work
After bluez reinstallation, I have had to switch headphones sound profile to "High Fidelity Playback (A2DB Sink)" in sound configuration because, with original one, sounds was very bad. Now, headphones work correctly.
OK, after notebook shutdown and start, the problem is back. And now, even bluez reinstallation, headphones don't work.
EDIT4:
Finally, I know, where is the problem - I have to turn off a Wi-Fi connection and turn on it after that. After this, Bluetooth is working correctly.
Is there any possibility to get it working without this Wi-Fi manipulation?
