H8 and E8 disconnect from Skype

24 replies

For me it ia still not working with the B&O E8 with Softwareversion 5.6.0. Everytime after 15 minutes when I talk mit MS Teams or Skype the B&O E8 will disconnect after 15 minutes which is really annoying because that way I can't use them when working for talking.

Not hijacking the thread, but I also experience this with WebEx on my work computer. Seems to only happen when audio is switched to Headset (BeoPlay H8 Hands Free) and not when it's Headphones (BeoPlay H8 Stereo). 

Although, I will say, that when I have Spotify playing at low level in the background, it resolves the disconnect issue.

This trick also works for BeoPlay H9 (1. gen)  in MS Teams.

In MS Teams you cannot chose BeoPlay H9 Stereo as speaker and BeoPlay H9 Hands Free as mike - some strange reason... If you do there is no sound in the speakers...

My solution is setting BeoPlay H9 Stereo as speaker and then use my logitech webcam with build-in mic as microphone.
