Hi, I came across this pull request by chance, tried it locally, and it actually helped me. Is there any issue in the KDE repository related to this problem? |

The idea looks good, but you should probably stop the systemd service instead of killall. |

The mention of MacBookPro15,1 is not needed. Remove that like. Also, try stopping the service instead of killall and see if that works for you. |

High-quality audio streaming over Bluetooth has always stuttered periodically on my MacBookPro15,1 running Fedora KDE. Several hours of troubleshooting and help from other users revealed that
kdeconnectd, the background daemon for KDE Connect and shipped by default, is responsible for this (presumably together with poor Broadcom driver/firmware). Add a warning to spare this pain to KDE users.I put this where I thought it would be relevant. Feel free to edit or move things directly to where you like.
Context:
kdeconnectdtriggers regular Bluetooth scans ("inquiries") four times a minute. For some reason, while this happens, Bluetooth throughput tanks to less than 1/5 its nominal value, which isn't enough for A2DP audio streaming, leading to periodic stuttering.
