Please keep this bug about fixing the issue for ath9k wifi only. So this bug is not a duplicate of bug 405294. This bug is open and should be fixed in the kernel (package "linux").
** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 405294 A2DP Bluetooth audio skips terribly ["Skipping NNN us (= MMM bytes) in audio stream"] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746164 Title: Enable Bluetooth-Wifi coexistence by default [bluetooth audio and network skip on Wifi activity] Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: By default BT audio works fine on Ubuntu - if there is no WiFi active: Both work on the same frequency range, 2 WiFi channel is about 20 Bluetooth Channels wide and every time a WiFi package is sent bluetooth risks a packet loss. Creating a file named /etc/modprobe.d/bluetooth-audio.conf with the following content: options ath9k btcoex_enable=1 bt_ant_diversity=1 resolves the problem and drastically increases bluetooth throughput for all other use cases (bluetooth networking that doesn't drop every time the WiFi probes something, lower latency Bluetooth HIDs. We should ship things in a way that they work out-of-the-box => I am all for providing this file with Ubuntu, possibly with Bluez. In the case of my laptop btcoex_enable=1 would already do the trick.
