Hello.

I'm on a mac mini 2020 M1, and I love it, but I noticed some weird issues with bluetooth audio.
I normally use a pair of wireless headphones (using the AAC codec), but I noticed some weird behaviour.

Whenever I'm initiating a new complex operation (like opening safari while I'm working on photoshop) I notice the bluetooth audio drops for a second or crackles (still for a second).
I initially thought it was a problem with the headphones, but it's too precise.
It feels like when the computer has to initiate a new operation of medium complexity, the processor can't keep up with the bluetooth audio.

Please consider I'm not experiencing any problems with the operation of the Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse (well I did at the beginning, like many else here, but they were fixed in macOS 11.3)

Any of you experienced anything similar?

To ber fair it could be a problem specific to the apple music app on mac, and not the OS itself (I'm on MacOS 11.4)

Cheers :)
