[How to do instruction] Pi Zero 2 W: Fix choppy bluetooth playback (updated firmware package now available)

[Chiny]

OK, I'm now using:

Code:

--sbc-quality=high

and in 15 minutes of testing, there has not been a single stutter.

That highlights an inconsistency in my testing.   In the first of two tests (yesterday), I removed  the last switch "--sbc-quality=xq+" entirely, about which the documentation says

Code:

Default value is high.

so in theory it should have worked without stuttering yesterday.

One difference in my testing method was:
In the first two tests yesterday, I rebooted the R Pi after making the changes, whereas today for the xq --> high change, I went for:

Code:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

although I can't see this being significant.

Ah, 20 - 25 minutes, a stutter.   I'll drop the quality to medium, later today, and re-test.

Clearly this change of --sbc-quality is making a difference although I'm not clear why.   Perhaps I need to read the bluealsa documentation
