Infuriating sound loss with Bluetooth UE Boom 2 on Windows 7

[mlunberg]

Hi all

I'm having a really frustrating problem with my new Bluetooth speaker. Essentially, it pairs fine with the bluetooth receiver I bought and is recognised by the computer. It's recognised in audio devices as the default device and in the taskbar, and when audio is playing the green bar is going up on the volume bar as if sound is coming out. And sometimes, it is. However, almost every time I boot my computer, the sound seems to die after a short while. In fact I literally just rebooted it and opened iTunes and could get sound. Then, perhaps 30 seconds later I loaded up Spotify and tried to play something and it was no longer working. I have been fiddling for days and getting nowhere. Any suggestions would be very helpful!

Cheers

There are different audio settings between listening sounds saved on the computer and streaming such as Spotify.
