Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have great audio playing local music-files from my laptop using a Bluetooth connection to my B&O Beolit 15 - as long as the network access from the laptop is disabled.  When I switch on the network (WiFi), the sound is disrupted every now and then.

My Iphone 4 can stream audio from the wifi to the Beolit in the same surroundings without problems, so it cannot be a question of envirionmental noise.

My guess is that the laptop gives priority to handling the wifi over handling the bluetooth audio, and thus the bluetooth audio disrupts due to starvation.  

Can anyone give me a hint on how to solve this problem?

(Yes, I could just keep on disabling the network access, but I would like to be able to stream live audio from the internet rather that local files only)

Well the workaround showed up to be selecting the right tools:

When streaming filed music: do not use "Groove Music" or "Microsoft Media Player".  Instead: use file manager and right click on a file or folder, and select "Enhedsstreaming>" (my Windows speaks danish, could it be "stream to device"? - just below "play with Windows Media Player")

When playing live radio, use "VLC media player" and streaming interface from the broadcasting station, rather the relying on their user friendly browser interfaces
