one of my favourite Windows utilities is the Bluetooth Audio Receiver found at the link below. What I like about it is that you can play bluetooth audio from any smartphone through your computer. It's pretty darned handy. Plus, you can have multiple phones connected: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9n9wclwdqs5j?hl=en-US&gl=US
Bluetooth Audio Receiver - Free download and install on Windows | Microsoft Store

This app allows you to use the latest version of Windows 10 2004 (Bluetooth A2DP Sink) to play music from Bluetooth devices on your PC. For the app to work correctly, you must have a Bluetooth adapter and a playback device that supports A2DP, and pre-pair the devices in Settings - > Devices -> Bluetooth.

@mcourcel Great app. Too bad it doesn't let you set the output anymore though, that was very helpful.

@misterkrabs @mcourcel All that app really does is establish a connection, then the rest is handled by Windows "listen to this device" thing. So, you can just go to your input devices, find your connected device in the list, go to the listen tab in the old control panel, then change the output device in there. It's a bit odd, but it works, and it's reliable, at least for me.

@BorrisInABox @mcourcel The new version, not sure whether this is windows 11 doing this or what, but I don't see an input or output device labeled with my phone's name like I used to.

@misterkrabs @mcourcel Could be Windows 11, I dunno. I'm still on 10, and I can still change it.
