I've set up a multi output device using the MIDI set up on an iMac. It's supposed to output sound on the internal mac speaker and a Bluetooth speaker at the same time. It does not when you play a podcast. For some reason sound is only on the internal speaker. I have to select the BT speaker separately which isn't much use as the whole purpose of this was to get sound out of the iMac and the BT speaker at the same time.
BT speaker is an Echo dot 3 as it was on offer.
Why can't you dual speaker a sodding podcast?!
Music is fine. Youtube fine. Echo is poor for music and reasonable for podcasts which was the whole point to have it on the main computer and on the external speaker to allow extra wandering about capacity while listening to podcasts as I'm not a great fan of headphones for very long.
I just find it ridiculous that one type of content with the same interface doesn't work. I don't use the ios podcasts app as it doesn't keep track of already played content so I use the desktop version which does.
Any way around this stupid limitation?
