I've just got the Transformer - and it auto upgraded to 3.2
I was trying to watch BBC iPlayer using bluetooth headphones (Sennheiser) - and iplayer was unwatchable - stalling - dropouts etc. Converted the headphones to direct plug-in (no bluetooth) - and everything was smooth.
Bluetooth kills the Transformer streaming. Anything I can do to fix it?

I keep experiencing the problem on my Transformer.
When I listen to the music using my bluetooth speaker connected to my Transformer, the WiFi connection becomes extremely unstable and the download is suspended. Once I stop playing music or shut Bluetooth down, everything just go well.
I've learned WiFi and Bluetooth do clash as they are using same frequency. But there should be some technology to prevent it. Wifi and Bluetooth can work well on my Galaxy S together.
I'm wondering what is the actual problem.
Thanks!
yes, very annoying.
Playing Youtube videos while using bt headphones causes the videos to stall frequently.
Bump bump bump
can someone try with bluetooth 2 or 2.1 headphones? They reportedly have better wi-fi collision avoidance protocols.
No issues here playing Youtube with stereo bluetooth.
EDIT: Scratch that. Got a pause. Seems to get stuck and buffers.
EDIT2: Nah. It buffers without bluetooth connected too so must be my connection.
Happens all the time to me on my Evo. I use it to play music through my car's stereo, but the instant I'm close enough to my home's wifi, Bluetooth cuts out. I think it's an Android thing, not something specific to this hardware.
Look for Bluetooth coexistence on your router and hope your bluetooth headset supports the feature too. I think the Transformer's Broadcom radio will automatically enable its coexistence feature if it detects the router using it. I don't know why they decided to make Bluetooth around 2.4 GHz too.
I tried pairing the Infinity with my newly purchased LG HBS-700 headset.

The sound quality is fantastic, but unfortunately, the audio is siginificantly out of sync with any video. I first tried Youtube which resulted in delayed audio in all the videos. I read on here that people were having issues because Bluetooth and Wifi on this device share the same antenna. I then tried watching a 1080p mkv from a Class 10 microSD card using BS Player. This resulted in the same audio delay. I then turned off Wifi and reopened the movie file. The audio delay was the same. So it appears that the Bluetooth lag we are experiencing is independent of Wifi usage. I really hope this is fixable as I bought this headset with the Infinity in mind.
I should point out that I then tested the headset with my Galaxy Nexus. I streamed the same Youtube videos with good results. There might be some lag, but it is so small that I can hardly detect it.
For those of you with Bluetooth audio headsets or speakers, use this Youtube clip to gauge your audio lag.

With my Galaxy Nexus, the clap sound is around the 0 mark. With the Infinity, the clap sound is at +3 or +4.
Bump for anyone who can test this.
I just paired my LG HBS-700s to my Galaxy Tab 10.1. And guess what?
NO AUDIO LAG!
With my Galaxy Tab, Youtube audio is spot on as well. No problem with Wifi and Bluetooth running simultaneously. This tells me that this must be a software issue on the Infinity that needs fixing ASAP.
I have a Jam box and I can confirm that the audio is out of sync 1~2 secs on all apps (games, YouTube, Google music, etc).
Same apps with my Gnexus no lags.
I am using CROMI-X 5.4 on a TF700. It's connected via HDMI to a Denon receiver, and is used to play music, videos, etc.
Whenever I first play videos via MX Player (or music via Shuttle), the receiver says that it's receiving a stereo signal. That's good. The receiver interprets the stereo signal as Dolby PLII and it comes out all 5 speakers and subwoofer.
However, after I play a few videos or songs the receiver suddenly starts receiving a multi-channel audio signal. That's bad. The receiver doesn't mix a multi-channel audio signal, and the source audio is really only two channels, and so only two of my speakers end up being used.
I've confirmed that my media is all two channels, nothing more. Is there any way to force the TF700 to ONLY output stereo audio via HDMI? I've tried editing audio_policy.conf and commenting out the lines regarding the multi-channel capabilities of the device, but it didn't seem to have any impact.
Thanks.
I've confirmed that I get the same behaviour with Google Play Music, My Play Home (a game), and the default Video Player. So it's not an app-related problem.
It *may* be a problem with the receiver, but I believe it worked fine until I installed a more recent version of CROMI. I can only assume it's something to do with the newer CROMI build, or perhaps _that's kernel? In any case, I'd be happy to limit the device to stereo output in ALL cases if at all possible.
Is anybody having an issue streaming music over Bluetooth? My streaming stutters literally every second like a skip and occurs constantly. It also disconnects frequently from my pebble smart watch. When streaming music from spotify using another phone there is no stuttering in the music, so I know my Bluetooth FM transmitter is fine.
Is anybody out there having any issues similar to mine?
