I upgraded to the new 18.04 version of ubuntu, coming from the latest 17. release. In both versions I have the same problem using my JBL Charge 3 bluetooth speaker. The sound is lagging and is being interrupted in uneven sequences, sometimes sounding OK for two seconds, then being interrupted in bursts.



I have tried disconnecting, re-connecting, switching HSP/HFP and A2DP Sink on and off, also "forgetting" the device and reconfiguring it.



My kernel (dmesg) says (repeatedly):



[ 5903.702600] input: FC:A8:9A:9B:81:E9 as /devices/virtual/input/input23

I have also tried this workaround without success.

I have this speaker and Intel integrated bluetooth. I think it's just bad controller, because I had issues with other devices before. The only thing you can do is to locate your speaker as close to your pc/laptop as possible, on distances more than 2 meters it won't work reliably. The other thing to consider if you are on 18.04 and using intel's bluetooth is updating firmware from here https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/257270/get-rid-of-no-caching-mode-page-found-message-during-boot and installing fresh version of bluez from this PPA https://launchpad.net/~bluetooth/+archive/ubuntu/bluez.
It might not be the cause of your particular problem, but you definitely will see this bug later if you will get your speaker to work.
