HP Laptop and Bluetooth Headphones

[HesNotGudjonsonn2]

Hi Guys,

 

Hope you are all well. I was wondering if someone could help me with a laptop problem. I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones that I use with my phone and would like to use them with my Laptop also. I have paired them with my laptop (in the laptop Bluetooth setting screen it shows them and says paired) but the sound still comes out of the laptop.

 

I have gone into sound settings to try and select a different output and the only option it offers me are the laptop speakers. 
 

It still shows it is paired with the Bluetooth headphones though.

 

My Laptop is an HP 15s running on Windows 10.

 

Can anyone help me with a fix for this?

 

Thanks

On my work HP laptop, the wireless headphones show as connected rather than paired?

I turned it all off and on again and it works.

I can silence my Sony laptop by simply plugging an unwired audio plug into the audio output socket. The socket has a 2-way contact which switches the sound from the internal speakers to any external speakers or headphones.
