1. An electronic device comprising:
a communication module;
a memory; and
a processor operatively coupled to the communication module and the memory,
wherein the processor is configured to:
monitor a first device latency between a wireless audio output device and the electronic device connected using a first communication scheme through the communication module;
predict a second device latency in connection with the wireless audio output device via a wearable display device connected using a second communication scheme through the communication module; and
control connection of the wireless audio output device based on the first device latency and the second device latency.
