Problems with nrf5340 audio example

When I use two nrf5340 audio DK to test the LE audio demo, the handset side always crashes. Especially when I move the DK that is used as the handset.I think that incomplete data reception due to compromised communication can cause a crash problem.

Configuration:

CONFIG_SW_CODEC_SBC=y

And when use ''CONFIG_TRANSPORT_BIS=y'' same as above.

Hello,

In addition to setting CONFIG_TRANSPORT_BIS=y in the prj.conf you will need to go into overlay-headset.conf and overlay-gateway.conf and delete these two:
CONFIG_LC3_ENC_CHAN_MAX=2
CONFIG_LC3_DEC_CHAN_MAX=1.

Please do this, and let me know if it resolves your issue.

Best regards,
Karl

As a side-note: I highly recommend that you make use of the LC3 codec for your evaluation and development wherever possible - it is really a major improvement over the SBC! :)

Hi Karl,

I have deleted these two, otherwise I cannot compile code.Obviously,the problems I mentioned occurred during the DK is running.

Could you provide the full log from the headset side?
Could you also confirm whether you have any many other modifications to the application other than the BIS configuration + 3 changes for the SBC mentioned earlier?

Best regards,
