    Hi!


    I am running a Lenovo Yoga 15-730 with Windows 10 Pro, version 2004, and my issue comes when using my Bluetooth headphones. When not playing a full screen game, everything works fine. All the Windows sounds, clicks, music, videos, etc., come through the headphones just fine. But when I open a full screen game, it immediately switches to the laptop speakers. I have tried plugging them in; no change. I have tried turning them off then on again; no change. I have tried "Forget Device" and reinstall them; no change. I have tried turning the laptop on and off; no change. All drivers are up to date.


    Any ideas???

    :)

    Bluetooth speaker wont connect to laptop?


    I'm having some trouble figuring out what to do here, my Bluetooth speaker wont connect and isn't even discoverable by my laptop. i want to connect my Bluetooth speaker to my laptop but when i go to Bluetooth settings my speaker does not show up on the list of devices. I have un-installed and re-installed the drivers, i've reset the Bluetooth driver management service and Bluetooth support services but still nothing is working, any help would be much appreciated.

    just in case you need to know the specs.
    speaker: Bush soundbar model-BSB02BT20
    laptop: Hp Elitebook 8470p running windows 10

    please help!

    How to play audio/music through speakers AND bluetooth speakers


    I have a pair of Creative T40 speakers plugged into the 3.5mm jack on my laptop. I got hold of a bluetooth speaker and that was recognised straight-away.

    I have installed a large monitor (32inch) to the laptop on which I work as well as watch movies and play games. I was wondering if I could setup that audio, be it music, gaming audio or movie audio could be played through BOTH sets of speakers.

    The main T40's are on either side of the monitor and I have the bluetooth speaker behind me on a shelf. That would, kind-of, give me surround sound. Or when I have people over I could get better sound if I could just move the bluetooth speaker to a different part of the room.

    Any ideas or suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Windows 10 recognizes my UE Megaboom as a headset and not a speaker will not work?

    Hi Rachael,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I suggest you try the steps listed below and check if it works. This issue could be because of the Headphones BT SPEAKER Stereo being set as default. I suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works.



    • Pair the speaker with your PC.
    • Right click the Windows icon on the taskbar and choose
      Device Manager.

    • Expand Sound, video, and game controllers
      and right click on your Bluetooth speaker (BT SPEAKER Stereo).
    • Choose Disable and acknowledge the confirmation popup. Wait for the screen to refresh.
    • Right click on the same device again and Enable.
    • Exit Device Manager and see if the issue persist.


    Regards,
