I have an iphone 4 running on IOS 5 beta 4. I stream music all the time through bluetooth in my car and have been since IOS 4. I just updated to the new beta yesterday but now when I stream music through the bluetooth it skips every few seconds. If i disconnect from bluetooth it sterams fine. i reset network settings on the phone and still does the same thing. Any suggesstions on what the problem may be? Also I have tried with multiple bluetooth headsets.
Got a tip for us?

With each beta increase (eg. 1-2, 2-3, 3-4) things get fixed and broken constantly. This is why Apple recommends NOT installing betas on devices that are used as primary devices. Hopefully these problems will be fixed in the GM build.
Yes, this is an issue with Beta 4 and there is a big thread on it at the Dev forums. I have reported this as a Performance bug, so hopefully it'll get fixed in the next beta. This was not an issue with Beta's 1-3, so something changed in the latest beta.
The issue is most prevalent when you are doing something else on your phone while using Bluetooth, but I still got stuttering and skipping even when my phone was untouched and the screen was off. Music streaming is basically unplayable in most circumstances.

Same problem. Streaming music to an A2DP/ bluetooth device in iOS 5 beta 4 is unbearable. Music just skips. Here's to hoping we get beta 5 soon!
