It's inconvenient to replicate your configuration with a Pi4B at the moment but I do have two Pi3As online, one running 32-bit 8.1.1 and the other 64-bit 8.1.1. (I don't expect a material difference but ya never know.) I use WiFi for connection of all my devices (except the NASes) to my LAN.
Using a JBL Flip2 Bluetooth speaker for my test, I get what sounds to be roughly equal and quite acceptable output levels from either player via their onboard Bluetooth transceivers.
Not sure where to start diagnosing your issue, but as always posting the system info output is a good start.
As an aside, for all Pis with onboard WiF/Bluetooth it's good to keep them as much in the open as possible given other constraints. Burying them in a metallic case and/or in a rat's nest of cables is a recipe for frustration.
And, since I just saw some other posts from this morning, of course there can be mutual interference between the WiFi and Bluetooth subsystems on these SBCs; they're just radios. As the saying goes, though, the devil in the details.
