A:Answer I was disappointed I couldn't connect my Bluetooth speakers directly to the TV, but I found a workaround which allowed me to use the headphones independent of the TV speakers/soundbar. I purchased a Bluetooth transmitter with one input and two outputs (got the MEE audio Connect universal Bluetooth wireless audio transmitter), and an optical splitter (got the ZEXMTE Optical Fiber Splitter 1 in 2 Out Toslink Splitter) and it works great. TV sound can be turned up or down, and I can control the sound level of my headphones independently. Very slight latency issue, but not to the point of being a problem. Both are very small and very light, and I used 2-sided foam tape to stick them to the back of the TV.
