Hi there! Thank you for reaching out to us. We understand that you're looking to use both your LG OLED55GXPUA TV with an LG S70TR Soundbar while utilizing Apple AirPods for personal audio. For the best experience, the S70TR Soundbar supports Bluetooth connectivity, but it doesn’t natively allow for simultaneous output through both Bluetooth and the soundbar. However, we recommend trying a workaround using the LG TV's Bluetooth functionality for your AirPods and using the soundbar's connection for room audio. Here’s a possible troubleshooting step: On your OLED55GXPUA, go to Settings > Sound > Sound Out and select Bluetooth for your AirPods. Ensure that the soundbar is connected via HDMI eARC or Bluetooth for the room’s audio. https://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-oled55gxpua-oled-4k-tv#pdp_specs If you continue to have issues, we’d love to assist you further.
