Not simultaneously, no. It just switches to the last device that output sound. So if you had two things playing music, it will either not switch or constantly switch between the two sources.
I don't even know if there's a good way to get 2 or more sources to play simultaneously through the same speakers. I can certainly go the other way and split 1 source into 2 systems, but I don't know if you can just reverse a splitter to have output from 2 sources into a single input. 🤔
you can use a physical mixer and attach it to a bluetooth transmitter or, if one device is a PC, use audio in and configure it to mix it with its own sounds. physical analog 2 way splitters can also be used in reverse.
but I don't know if you can just reverse a splitter to have output from 2 sources into a single input. 🤔
Can't you just chain them? For example, when I connect my Phone via bluetooth to my PC I can connect said PC to my speakers which will play both's audio at once just fine
I have 2 different multipoint headphones and neither can, but I can't say for certain that it's not possible. With the main one I use, once you start playing audio on one of the paired devices, it'll completely switch over to that device.
I’m not sure if it’s even possible to mix two sources with Bluetooth multipoint. I’ve never seen a device that could.
The few that I’ve seen that can mix sources have all had Bluetooth plus a wireless dongle and they could mix the two connections.
I can’t seem to pull up my post history but I’ve asked something similar before if you can see one of my few posts. In there people say they’ve been successful with a few kinds of headphones.

I currently run an abomination of a 4 way physical mixer with 2 input jacks and 2 Bluetooth receivers – into 1 output Bluetooth. If I need to travel lighter I fallback to software for 2 to 1.
