How to Fix Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Bluetooth Audio Cutting Out

Bluetooth audio dropouts can ruin your listening experience. Whether you are using wireless earbuds, a car stereo, or a Bluetooth speaker, interruptions in sound can be annoying and distracting.

If your Galaxy S25 Ultra keeps cutting out during calls or music playback, there are several reasons this could be happening. The good news is, it’s often easy to fix.

Why Your Galaxy S25 Ultra Bluetooth Audio Keeps Cutting Out

• Bluetooth interference from nearby devices.
• The connected accessory is too far away.
• Outdated software or firmware.
• Corrupted Bluetooth cache or pairing errors.
• Battery optimization or background restrictions interrupting the connection.

Move Closer to the Bluetooth Device.

Bluetooth has a limited range. If you are too far from the connected device, the signal weakens and audio begins to skip or cut out.

Keep your Galaxy S25 Ultra within 5 to 10 meters of your Bluetooth device. Avoid walls, metal surfaces, or crowded wireless environments that can cause interference.

Restart Bluetooth on Both Devices.

Restarting Bluetooth clears temporary glitches and refreshes the connection. This often resolves minor audio lag or interruptions.

1. Swipe down from the top-right corner to open Quick Settings, and then tap the Bluetooth icon to turn it off.
2. Wait a few seconds, and then tap the Bluetooth icon again to turn it back on.

Also, restart your Bluetooth accessory to reestablish a clean connection.

Re-pair the Bluetooth Device.

Sometimes the saved connection data between your Galaxy S25 Ultra and the Bluetooth device becomes corrupted. Removing and re-pairing it can help.

1. Open Settings, and then tap Connections.
2. Tap Bluetooth, and then tap the gear icon next to the connected device. Tap Unpair, and then reconnect it again.

Make sure both devices are in pairing mode and properly detected.

Clear Bluetooth Cache.

Old connection data or temporary files can interfere with Bluetooth stability. Clearing the cache can remove these conflicts.

1. Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
2. Tap the filter icon, select Show system apps, and then tap Bluetooth. Tap Storage, and then tap Clear cache.

After clearing, restart your Galaxy S25 Ultra and test the Bluetooth connection again.

Disable Battery Optimization for Bluetooth Apps.

Battery-saving features sometimes limit background processes that manage Bluetooth connections. Excluding Bluetooth-related apps can prevent sudden cutouts.

1. Open Settings, and then tap Battery and device care.
2. Tap Battery, and then tap Background usage limits. Turn off restrictions for Bluetooth-related apps or audio players.

This keeps your connection stable during long calls or music sessions.

Update Software and Firmware.

Outdated system software or accessory firmware can cause Bluetooth compatibility issues. Keeping everything updated ensures smoother connections.

1. Open Settings, and then tap Software update.
2. Tap Download and install, and follow the prompts if an update is available.

If your Bluetooth headset or speaker has its own app, open it and check for firmware updates there as well.

Reset Network Settings.

If Bluetooth problems persist, a network settings reset can fix deeper software conflicts.

1. Open Settings, and then tap General management.
2. Tap Reset, and then tap Reset network settings. Confirm the action and restart your phone.

Your Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile network settings will return to default, which often resolves recurring issues.

Bluetooth audio interruptions can usually be solved by reconnecting or refreshing your connection. With these steps, your Galaxy S25 Ultra should deliver smooth, uninterrupted sound again.
