The overwhelming joy of isolating why one's Bluetooth headphones are suddenly glitching.

(Repeatedly dropping audio output for something like 1/5 of every second is, I assume, not a user-requested enhancement.)

Approximately 3.14159 bajillion small testing steps later, it seems like the last upgrade to [paid, otherwise reliable audio utility I really like] is the culprit.

Polite email sent to the devs—here's hoping that they can help un-glitch things soon!

Already heard back from the devs!

They've helpfully let me know that others have also had similar bluetooth oddness and told me how to use a cool built-in method of generating a log file that'll help them debug the Glitchness.

Seriously, for such a small team, I'm impressed.

I'll wait until things are resolved to say more about who they are.

But as frustrating as this glitch is, their approach to support actually makes me feel happier to support this indie company.
