How do I stop my headphones from cutting out?

Why does my wired headset keep cutting out?
A short is caused by a break in the wire. Typically, headphones short out where the wire connects to the speakers, or, where the wire connects to the part that plugs into the headphone jack. For example, if sound cuts out when the wire near the headphone jack wiggles, that’s where the short is.

- Restarting both the headphone and the source device and continuing playback to determine if the stutter stops.
Why is one of my headphones cutting in and out?

Bluetooth transmission is affected if too many applications are running at the same time on the connected device. Close applications that you are not using to avoid slowing down the Bluetooth transmission. The sound may skip if the music being played has a high bit rate.
