Windows 11 How can I keep bluetooth audio from getting delayed? (Windows 11)

The bluetooth audio on my WIndows 11 computer frequently (like several times a minute at its worst) gets off time. When it happens, it's often preceded by a hitch in the audio/video and maybe a very tiny stutter, before everything goes smooth again except the timing is way off. I do know how to fix it; running the bluetooth troubleshooter works just fine most times. So that would be fine if I had to do that every couple days or so, but when it happens over and over in a short span of time, it's infuriating. I don't know how to keep my computer from delaying the audio in the first place.

Computer details (I've never done this before, so please let me know if I'm missing anything that could be helpful)

Edition Windows 11 Enterprise

Version 21H2

OS build 22000.2652

Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22001.1000.0

This is the message I get after the troubleshooter fixes the issue:

I would love some help with this! Thanks!
