I mean, it could be, but Bluetooth shouldn't work like that - it's a digital signal with a bunch of failure modes in the spec. You'd have to code it particularly stupidly to have that kind of problem - it's a very time-synched protocol, even a sudden disconnect with no disconnect signal is something a coder would have to confront explicitly if they were using off the shelf components
