I may be in the wrong subject heading but I am having trouble with my bluetooth connections on my PC.
When playing a video or movie my PC starts the video or movie using the monitors internal speakers. Then, when I turn on my Bluetooth speaker Windows 11 will recognize the speaker and switch sound to the BT speaker. When I pause the video or movie and start it again Windows starts over with the monitor's speakers and eventually connects to the BT speaker.
Has anyone had this happen to them and found a remedy? Thanks!

There is a setting in Device Manager, if you find your BT device right click > properties > power management > allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

Try unchecking this.

Option B, disable the monitor speakers from sound settings under System > Sound

I found the sound settings and confirmed BT was enabled. So I then disabled the monitor speakers. Thanks for the help!!!
