Music cutting out every second or two.

I bought Soundcore Life A1 headphones and paired them with a Garmin Forerunner 255 Music. The music plays without issues for about 20 minutes, but then it starts cutting out every one or two seconds. Incredibly annoying. When I turn the headphones off and back on, I get another 20 minutes of peace, but then the problem returns. Removing previous headphones from the paired list and restarting the watch didn't help. The same headphones don't have this issue with a phone, so it seems to be a problem with the watch. With my previous Adidas RPD01 headphones, the watch worked fine. Do you have any ideas what could be the cause and solution to this problem?

    Same issue with Shokz open swim 2 connected to my Garmin Descent Mk3i. Don't have any issues with the shokz connected to my phone.

    Quick update with some good news at the end. 

    Soundcore and Monster earbuds still remain a problem today on my FR 265. FYI, I've tried EVERYTHING to get them to work to no avail.

    I bought TOZO A1 for 23.99 CDN during prime day and they F'in work amazingly well with my FR 265!!!!!!

    They fit great!

    They sound pretty good once you play with the EQ setting (could have a little more bass but good enough)!

    They don't fall out after a sweaty run or workout!

    They consistently connect with my FR 265 every time within a couple seconds!

    Battery life is really good!

    I have no affiliation with TOZO or sponsored in any way. 

    I tried my soundcore earbuds again just in case the past update fixed the problem but i can confirm after 15-20ish minutes it breaks up. By the way, in my observation, it doesn't "break up" it pauses.  Its like the bluetooth service is running at 100% CPU like a computer as causes it to slow down. 

    Regardless....if you are looking for a decent low cost earbuds you can pair without drops or pauses try the TOZO earbuds.

    I gave up on Soundcore and monster earbuds with my watch (still use with iphone ; sound and work great)
