Sound glitches (bluetooth, laptop)

Hello,

I have been trying to make a connection to my JBL Charge 2 bluetooth speaker but I seem to be out of luck.
I managed to connect to it on a A2DP sink, but I have extreme lags / glitches, which may be because of the 'Connecting works, but there are sound glitches all the time' section under the wiki 'Bluetooth Headset' page.

Setup is a basic bluez + pulseaudio, like the wiki suggests.
Is there any possibility to get rid of these lags in a simple way? I have tried the wiki suggestions but it didn't work

If you need more info just ask and sorry if I'm being too vague, first post on forums.

Thanks!

If you are having problems configuring the tatency offset via the Wiki suggestions, you may want to consider installing the package pavucontrol, which is a GUI'd app that will allow you to make that adjustment in a "simple way" as you requested. There is even a QT version available.
