Did this issue ever get solved? I too would like to output to two audio
devices at the same time. I have audio over HDMI working, but due to
"factory ear" I'd like to keep the TV volume at a sane level and keep a
bluetooth speaker at my side to catch the dialogue during recordings. Blue
tooth works with youtube when I select it in sound config of ubuntu
settings, but as yet I can't get it working in Myth by itself, let alone
along with HDMI. Any suggestions?
