After skipping Linux for two years and getting frustrated with Windows recently, I set up Ubuntu 17.10 on my laptop. Everything seems fine except for one issue. When I connect my Philips SHB 7250 headphones, they only play audio for about two minutes before cutting off. The volume stays locked, and after a minute the music starts through the laptop speakers, but the headphones remain connected.

It seems you're curious about the laptop's Bluetooth capabilities. Non-Intel chipsets often face challenges with Linux compatibility, which might explain your observation.

Network controller indicates Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 (version 3a). Bluetooth appears to be active on the same device.
