Bluetooth 2 point connection does not work properly

  To let your headphones go back to your second device, release them from Patchd in one of two ways:

  1. On the output in Patchd that uses your headphones, open its device picker and choose None. Patchd won't play to the headphones until you pick them again. 2. Or right-click the Patchd icon by the clock and choose Quit Patchd.

  The reason might be this: while Patchd has your headphones selected as an output, it keeps sending them audio, even when that audio is silence. Headphones with a 2 point connection often follow whichever device is sending audio, so they may never see the PC as finished. We haven't tested this on a 2 point headset yet, so we can't say for sure that's what yours is doing. No fix is scheduled right now.

  To help us confirm it, could you tell us:

  Does your second device take over after you choose None, or after you quit Patchd? Do your headphones switch on their own when the second device plays audio, or only when you press something? Which headphones do you have, and which Patchd version are you on?
