The balance commands in JAWS only work with wired headsets.

Subject: [NFBCS] Zoom and bluetooth speaker

I want to listen to some Zoom meetings with my Bluetooth speaker because
it's louder than my wired speaker.  I turn on the Bluetooth speaker before
going into Zoom, but I also leave the wired speaker plugged in.  I get the
Zoom alerts and Jaws chatter on the Bluetooth, and the talking I really want
to hear on the quieter wired speaker.  How can I swap the sounds, so the
actual meeting is on the Bluetooth speaker, or get all the sound on the
Bluetooth? 

I tried the new Jaws command to balance the sound in Zoom.  No joy.  

I tried unplugging the wired speaker, but then all I got was the Jaws
chatter, no meeting.

Any ideas?  Is this a Jaws problem I need to call FS about, or a Zoom thing,
or something else?

Tracy
