Windows 10: Is it possible to pair 2 bluetooth headphones and output sound at the same time?

I have 2 pairs of Sony XM4 and I'm trying to find a way to pair both to windows so my partner and I can watch shows together. Using a 3.5mm splitter isn't ideal because the cables are short.

From what I can see looking this up, it seems it's not possible because of how windows uses sound drivers. Any ideas? Thanks

Bluetooth headphones pair but built in speakers still make the sound.

Hi Braden,

Conflicts with the default device in the Playback settings is one of the possible reasons why you are having issues using your newly paired Bluetooth headphones. You will need to set your Bluetooth headphones as the default Playback device. To do this, kindly
follow the steps below:

• Press the Windows key.
• Type Sound.
• Select Sound from the list of results.
• On the Playback tab, select a device, then Set Default.

Should you have further questions, feel free to reply on this thread.

 

Is it possible to play sound through headphones and HDMI output simultaneously?

Hi David,

I would like to inform that it is not possible to output sound through both the HDMI and the headphone jack simultaneously.

But you can watch video through HDMI and listen via headphone jack.

Follow the steps below.

• Right click on the speaker icon in the taskbar
• Left click playback devices
• Right click HDMI
• Select Disable.

Hope this information helps.

Regards,
