HiI almost tried everything possible. But the only thing that helped was entirely reinstalling Windows. I'm guessing this is related to a bug at the Windows Sound Controller, as there have also been heavy issues with Intel Audio devices.
Have you already checked in your computer's "Windows Update" whether it shows any optional updates that can be installed? (if there are, then there would be a link under the "Check for updates" button)
Maybe the driver version 1.9.1041.3002 is actually available on Windows Update.
Another method would be to go to the Device Manager, right-click on the entry for the "TP-Link Bluetooth 5.0 USB Adapter", click "Update driver" and then let Windows "Search automatically for drivers".
I have repeatedly connected my Life Q20 Headphones to Windows using my bluetooth dongle. Windows even recognizes it and connects. However, no sound comes through and the Headphones never show up as an option in the Sound Settings.
I have disconnected and forgotten the headphones, and then re connected them. I have also installed this driver ( -firmware). I have also tried resetting as said on this thread (Cant pair headphones Life Q20 with Windows 10).
None of these things worked. Is there a solution? I have been using the headphones wired through an AUX cable for the past couple of months and they have worked flawlessly, but it is right now with this bluetooth issue that I am facing a problem for the first time.
Most threads on similar issues has the issue as their Bluetooth driver. Update the Bluetooth driver and it may resolve it. There was ome person that stated that had to update it with a generic Bluetooth driver.
So I tried installing a bluetooth driver through a link ( -Wireless-Bluetooth-Driver-for-Windows-10-64-bit-for-Intel-NUC) then a straight update from Bluetooth Devices in the Control Panel. Neither solution has worked.
After the headphones get connected, there is a 10 second period where they stay connected (but my sound control panel cannot find them to use) and then they automatically disconnect and refuse to connect again.
Reset the headphones and then pair with the PC, that fixes the issue most times. If not then delete all pairings and turn all Bluetooth off of all other devices it was paired with, then reset then pair just with the PC.
In Windows, some audio applications will take exclusive control of an audio device's driver while in use so that other applications can not play audio through that device at the same time. Dependin...
thx again @The_Professor even after following above mentioned links my problem is not solved.
I have disabled bluetooth device as and even tried disabling other devices as suggested in that video but in vain.

Well i got bluetooth dongle now and Q10 is working fine without any issues.
It was frustrating going all through those steps posted in different forums and not getting result.
thx you all of you and these forums who are there to help.
and thx again @The_Professor
The lack of a robust set of documentation on steps, decision tree, process of elimination, is the ideal answer. Perhaps in some situations a BT dongle is the answer, well that should be known chipsets to not work.
So the driver software you can install from TP link technically works ( -
link.com/ca/support/download/ub400/#Driver), but let be honest it is very slow. Audio output to my bluetooth headphones is constatanly out of sync by 1-2 seconds at worst. The real problem with the TP-Link's driver software is that it can only pair with one device at a time, and the pairing process is forced to have to connect only using the bluetooth icon in the taskbar.
@jrmistry That's interesting the 2004 bloke your BT as well. It took out the built in setup, so I tried the external dongle to see what would happen. It didn't work either. The dongle was listed in the printers and devices section with e picture of a headset (as is seen in this thread), however, I was unable to find it listed in the actual device manager., therefore I was unable to update it or choose a different driver.
I had this problem, but found a solution that I hadn't seen explained in full anywhere else (although the idea of updating the driver that some people have mentioned was the clue that let me find the solution).
@JaydenH, I had similar issues and i had to go to Add or remove program and remove CSR Bluetooth Harmony Stack, then scan for hardware changes in device manager and suddenly everything started appearing again. Also check, ctrl + r, type services.msc and see if BluetoothSupportService is running otherwise restart the service and reboot. Hope this helps.
@JaydenH If it is not recognized, please download and install the Bluetooth driver manually from the official website. Try to insert UB400/ UB4A into a different USB port on your computer. For Windows XP/7, try to restart the computer after installing the driver.
@JaydenH A little bit too late, but I run into the same problem: my computer has a faulty integrated BT adapter, and Windows would not recognize the UB400 I got as a replacement. The UB400 will work only after you disable the default adapter. Try disabling the default adapter and rebooting your machine.
XPS 1645 370 BT Driver Win 10. > I had the same issue and what I found was that I needed to go into Add/Remove programs and Uninstall the Broadcom driver software from Windows 7. Once I did that I then used the Broadcom drivers for Windows 10 provided by Lenovo (which is the same as Broadcoms but the installer works). The Lenovo version of the Broadcom driver can be found at the link below.( if link gets broke just search for Lenovo Broadcom Bluetooth Windows 10). Another issue that needs resolved is garbled audio via BT and that can be resolved by downloading Realtek's Windows 10 HD audio codec. I hope this information is helpful to anyone who has faced the same issue. I know personally I spent numerous hours with both Dell and Microsoft trying hopelessly to get this resolved. Thankfully I just gave in and plugged away at my own research and managed to get the issue resolved. It took me about 3 hours of research and only 5 minutes to actually get it going (including restart and device pairing). So glad I got this resolved... good luck.
I wonder if a reboot with the bluetooth device disabled in BIOS, then make sure everything related to bluetooth is truly gone, and then reboot with the device re-enabled through BIOS might get you past WIndows trying to be "helpful" and automatically re-installing something before you wanted it to? And then do the install you want to do. Just a guess. Good luck.
Visit the Realtek website and download the correct codec for your Windows 10 install (32bit or 64bit). Here is the link below if for some reason the link gets stripped out by a moderator just Google Realtek, choose downloads from the top and on the right hand column you will see a link for codecs.
Download the Realtek HD codec as well as the driver if you are still having garbled sound out of your headset. Be sure also to download the version corresponding to your Windows Install. ( if your windows is 32 bit or 64 bit ) if you install the wrong one it will not help you. Hope this is helpful.
As much as I enjoy the Vive when it works, it's getting really frustrating to use it regularly. My most common issue is the bluetooth link not working, which either causes the Base Stations to never go to sleep, or not wake up.
Clicking Restart obviously doesn't do anything. I tried power cycling everything. Link box first then stations, and the other way around. Tried uninstalling the drivers and re-installing them, unchecking the "use bluetooth" in the settings and re-checking it.
Is there a magic solution I'm unaware of? A very specific sequence of actions to make this work, ideally without having to do it everytime I use the Vive? The Base stations are quite loud so putting them to sleep is pretty important (not to mention power consumtion), and I would like to avoid un/plugging them from the wall everytime I want to jump into VR.
I was having this problem too, I gave up on the bluetooth thing and turned off that feature, I just have my lighthouses plugged into a switched power bar (one for each lighthouse) and at one of them, I also have the Vive's power plugged in also. So when I'm not using the Vive, I just turn off the two power bars and unplug the Vive's USB. Everything's been working well since, that Bluetooth option seems to be more of a pain than what it's worth. I did have it working decently at one time, but after a SteamVR update, it never did work properly afterwards, there has been many SteamVR updates since but I just can't be bothered to have the headaches to get it to work properly.
The Vive system is composed of about 9 different USB drivers, including Bluetooth, controllers, camera, receivers and audio, among others. Due to different reasons, like software updates, change of connections, system updates or malfunction of a device, the USB drivers might get into conflict and reinstalling them is a good way to get everything back to its working state.
Note: This list includes the drivers of the devices directly connected to the computer by USB, as it is the HMD and Link box. Controllers and Base Stations are connected to the headset through Bluetooth and then to the computer, so these devices are not going to be visible on this list.
Try the steps above and see if that works for you.
