Windows 10: i bought Bluetooth speaker but can't pair it with my laptop

Can't select paired bluetooth speaker as sound output (Windows 10)

I just got a new bluetooth speaker, an Urbanears Stammen (concrete grey)

I can connect to it from my phone, using Bluetooth, and play back sound no problem. But I can't get my Windows 10 laptop (Dell XPS 15) to use it as a playback device.

I can connect and pair to it no problem, as you see in the screenshot below





It also shows up under bluetooth in the device manager. It's not listed under "Audio inputs and outputs", which I thought it should be, but I can see it under "Sound, video and game controllers".





But I can't select it as a playback device





I found this relevant superuser question: Windows 10 computer paired w/ bluetooth speaker, but doesn't send music to speaker

And I tried the suggested steps listed there, but nothing helped

Any further ideas I could try?

 

pairing speaker with laptop

I have an Asus laptop running Windows 10. I just bought a bluetooth speaker by Bose and I have already paired it up with my iPad and the music I play on the iPad comes out of the speaker. Yesterday I bought a USB Bluetooth dongle and plugged it in to this
laptop. I used the cd that came with it and downloaded it onto this laptop. In the action centre, I see Bluetooth is highlighted, but when I try to connect it doesn't find the speaker. Is it because I have already paired up the iPad? If so what should I do
now? I have lots of music on this laptop and want to be able to play it with my new speaker. I have also written to Asus because the dongle is an Asus product also. Please help me out here and thank you.
