It only works sporadically so I don't know what to do or how to fix it.

    Hello,

    Before we begin troubleshooting, may I confirm whether you’re using a USB Bluetooth dongle plugged into your PC or the Bluetooth built into your Speakers? Knowing this will help us determine whether the issue is on the PC side, the USB dongle, or the speaker side.

    Also, please make sure no other nearby devices, such as a mobile phone or another device, are trying to stream audio to the speakers, as this may interfere with the Bluetooth connection and prevent the audio from working properly. For testing purposes, pair the speakers only with your Windows device and keep other nearby devices disconnected. Then check whether the audio works without any interruptions.

    Also, ensure the speakers are within Bluetooth range and not too far from the PC.

    For a Bluetooth device that connects only sporadically in Windows, use this troubleshooting order:

    1. Check the Bluetooth device itself.
      • Make sure it is turned on, charged, and within range of the PC.
      • Turn the device off, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
      • If it is near a USB 3.0 device, move it farther away because unshielded USB devices can interfere with Bluetooth connections.
    2. Verify Bluetooth settings on the PC.
      • In Windows 11: Start > Settings > Bluetooth & devices.
      • Make sure Bluetooth is on.
      • Make sure Airplane mode is off from the taskbar quick settings.
      • Turn Bluetooth off, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
    3. Remove the device and pair it again.
      • In Windows 11: Start > Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Devices.
      • Select More options for the problem device, then Remove device > Yes.
      • Pair the device again.
    4. Run the Bluetooth troubleshooter.
      • In Windows 11: Start > Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters.
      • Next to Bluetooth, select Run.
      • If available, the Get Help Bluetooth troubleshooter can also run diagnostics automatically.
    5. Update the Bluetooth driver.
      • Open Device Manager.
      • Expand Bluetooth and select the Bluetooth adapter.
      • Right-click it and choose Update driver > Search automatically for updated driver software.
      • Restart the PC if prompted.
      • If Windows does not find a newer driver, download the latest Bluetooth driver from the PC manufacturer’s website.
    6. If the problem continues, uninstall and reinstall the Bluetooth adapter.
      • In Device Manager, expand Bluetooth.
      • Right-click the Bluetooth adapter and select Uninstall device.
      • Shut down the PC, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on so Windows can try to reinstall the driver automatically.
      • If it does not reinstall automatically, in Device Manager select Action > Scan for hardware changes.

    If the issue is intermittent, the most common cause in the provided guidance is an outdated or incompatible Bluetooth driver.
