Public bug reported:
Issue: Pairs successfully, but audio stutters/cuts. After 5 to 15
seconds, it disconnects and enters an infinite connect/disconnect loop.
Troubleshooting done: Tested forcing ControllerMode = bredr, wiping
/var/lib/bluetooth/*, and disabling Wi-Fi to rule out coexistence
issues. Bug persists.
Important Context: Other Bluetooth headphones (JBL Tune) work perfectly
on this machine. The exact same JBL Flip worked fine on this laptop
(Dell Inspiron 3442) when running Windows.
