I've been having audio drop-outs on streaming any system audio to airplay devices (airplay speaker, ATV2 on amp) and a bose bluetooth speaker.
Spent the last 2 days trouble shooting and noticed, after much trial and error that the trouble started when invoking ... spotlight.
Disabled many settings and locations to no avail.
Then in the console I noticed the drop-outs started immediately when launching spotlight, which loads the following: "
2015/06/27 12:12:50,153 PM locationd[78]: Location icon should now be in state 'Active'
Disabling location services for spotlight solved the problem.
No more airplay or bluetooth audio drop-outs !
Weirdest bug ever ?
Possibly.
I have a new rMB 12" btw 10.10.3
Edit to add: any service that invokes the above location service state change to active causes audio drop-outs over airplay or bluetooth, such as swiping the notification bar out and the weather checking your location.
