I'd like to watch some movies on my Chromebook and have separate headphones for both me and my partner.

Is it possible to have audio output to two separate devices in Chrome OS?

Chromebooks can pair with multiple devices via Bluetooth. Here is the process:

• Step 1: Check if your Chromebook works with Bluetooth

  • At the bottom right, select the time.
  • If you see Bluetooth Bluetooth, your Chromebook works with Bluetooth.

• Step 2: Pair a Bluetooth accessory

  • If Bluetooth is off, turn on Bluetooth.
  • Select the accessory you want to connect to.
  • Follow the onscreen instructions to finish connecting.
  • To check if your accessory is connected, look under "Paired devices."

I've had trouble keeping multiple devices paired at the same time. Usually JBL bluetooth speaker, plus a Dualshock 4 controller (for Stadia). The speaker usually disconnects. It's not a problem when the controller is connected by USB.
