    Why does my computer keep splitting my bluetooth headset into 2 separate devices?


    This is frustrating. I use an external USB Bluetooth 5.0 adapter with a JBL Tune 710BT, a JBL Tune 760NC and some other Bluetooth headsets I used to own.Everytime I connect one of these stereo headsets, my computer splits them into "Headphones" and "Headset" in the playback section. "Headphones" option provides crisp stereo audio with no issues whatsoever.The problem is that the audio cuts out if any app attempts to access my microphone, unlike the "Headset" option. BUT the "Headset" option provides audio so bad that I don't even want to use it for a few seconds - Mono with incredibly bad soun

    Bluetooth headsets paired but not connected, not in Playback Devices (Windows 10)

    I have this problem too, but only on one of two Windows 10 machines. My "good" machine is a Dell XPS13 laptop with internal Buletooth adapter. My "bad" machine is an HP Envy 15 laptop with an external ASUS USB-BT400 Bluetooth 4.0 adapter and ASUS's latest
    install CD, whose files seem dated about 2013.

    When I turn on Bluetooth in the "good" machine and enable pairing in my Plantronics Voyager Legacy bluetooth headset, under "Manage Bluetooth Devices" the device "PLT_Legend" shows up as Connected, there is a Device Manager > Bluetooth > PLT_Legend device,
    and there are three Device Manager > Audio inputs and outputs entries related to PLT_Legend.

    When I turn on Bluetooth in the "bad" machine and enable pairing in my Plantronics Voyager Legacy bluetooth headset, under "Manage Bluetooth Devices" the device "PLT_Legend" shows up as Paired, and there is a Device Manager > Bluetooth > PLT_Legend device,
    but there are no Device Manager > Audio inputs and outputs entries related to PLT_Legend.

    I tried steps 1 and 2 suggested above on my "bad"machine, but they didn't fix the problem. (In step 1 there was no Bluetooth headset driver to uninstall).

    Any other suggestions for me to try??

    Why does my computer keep splitting my bluetooth headset into 2 separate devices?

    My bluetooth headset isn't listed in the playback devices list.

    Original Title: Bluetooth device in playback devices list Windows 10.

    I want to connect my Bose headset to my computer. The Bluetooth device list show them as paired. However my headset isn't listed in the playback devices list; so, I my computer can't send sound to my headset. How can I get my headset added to the playback
    devices list?
