Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
** Description changed:
I'm running Linux 4.20.0-042000-generic #201812232030 x64 on a Dell XPS
9570 with QCA6174 chipset, and have had the problem with Bluetooth audio
choppiness ever since I have owned this laptop. This problem has
persisted for me with previous kernels.
- It started with Ubuntu 18.04 and continues with 18.10. I'm running .
- It's particularly noticeable when the when saturating the WLAN
- connection with throughput, i.e. copying a large file sequentially
- across from a samba share, but also streaming video online results in
- the audio progressively delaying over-time. Re-establishing the
- Bluetooth audio sync restores the sync, but slowly creeps out again.
+ Note: I've reverted back v4.18.0-13-generic and reproduced the problem for
+ the apport-collect report.

I've upgraded my linux-firmware package to disco 176 to match v4.20
kernel drivers ref: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-
firmware/1.176
The ath10k_core driver that supports this device has a reference for
btcoex: ref
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/core.c?h=v4.20#n2598
It's possible that the Bluetooth component firmware is not supporting or
communicating btcoex compatibility, but this is starting to reach the
edge of my ability to diagnose the problem.
This btcoex support in ath9k has resolved/improved the Bluetooth
bandwidth problem as shown in

As a troubleshooting step, I've also tried the very latest firmware-6 file
