[Trainer-Talk] headset for both cellular and screen reader audio in a workplace

I would recommend a Braille Display with your phone. That way, you can hear
the call and read the text that is on your phone.

a workplace

Hi all,

We are looking for a headset that can provide both screen reader audio as
well as audio from a cell phone.

At my employer, we are moving away from standard desk phones to using cell
phones exclusively. Traditionally, we have purchased split headsets from
Plantronics for staff who use screen readers. These headsets would give the
PC audio in one ear and the phone in the other. 

Unfortunately, multi-point Bluetooth doesn't solve this. Any headsets I've
heard of can connect to two devices, but not provide simultaneous audio. The
audio is either one source or the other.

In this brave new world of agile workplaces, what solutions have people come
up with? 

Thanks!
