Hi Steve,
Many thanks for the suggestion.  When just using my phone (Samsung S6) alone I 
can use the app BubbleUPnP and MX Player on phone to listen on headphones and 
this seems noise free.  However we have situations where several renderers may 
be playing different playlists through loudspeakers or I may want one renderer 
muted so I can use headphone in private but another renderer may be playing 
same tracks on another renderer using Songcast.

Further examination of symptoms suggests that the noise seems to be 
interference, either with Bluetooth headphone directly or through the Bluetooth 
transmitter.  I suspect possible source of interference might be from wifi 
which could be from phone, laptop or access point but could be household 
electromagnetic interference (EMI).  I am trying to relate the clicks to 
possible traffic.  The clicks are not related to the data stream but occur in 
bursts with minutes of quiet between.  Clearly more work to do!

Thanks again for your suggestion.
Regards,
Budge.
