Hello,  
I realized that the bluetooth of my Dell laptop antenna is far better than anything I can plug into my PC.  
So I am using the laptop to connect my headset while using the PC.  
This works fine with just playing audio.

However, I would like to use the headset also to talk to chat GPT.  
so I would need another audio channel from the headset to the the PC.  
How can we do that?  
starting 2 instances didnt work.  
Any suggestions?

Well this is a pretty old post. But I still want to answer, just in case if someone else needs to know.

If you connect a Bluetooth headset with a mic and want to speak thru the mic to the system. Simply go into the Control Panel - Sounds - Recording. Then select theic of your Bluetooth headphones and make it default. Thos way the mic of your headphones will be used. If an application requires you to select a mic, then select the virtual mic that is created by the AudioRelay app.
