They are BT devices within Bluetooth range of your laptop but as long as they are not 'paired' with your laptop I would not have thought they were causing the cutouts. It may be compatibility issues with the versions of BT you have on your laptop and speaker.

If your Bluetooth speaker is cutting out go to Device manager -Bluetooth, right click the adapter -properties -power management and untick the box for 'Allow the computer to turn off the device to save power'. Also expand Human Interface Devices and check the list for same.
