Bluetooth speakers connecting but not showing :(

Hi everyone :)

I've recently discovered that my Bluetooth soundbar and headphones connect but don't show in 'Volume' or Sound settings. The strange thing is that a different set of Bluetooth speakers show up everytime, no problem.

I've run the troubleshooters for audio and Bluetooth with no luck, I've removed the devices and updated drivers in Device Manager, changed Startup type to automatic in Bluetooth audio gateway services and Bluetooth support services. However, under Services and Bluetooth User Support Service_1057 I can't change teh startup type as It says 'That parameter is wrong' when clicking apply.

Do you know what's going on? How can I get my soundbar to show up?

Thanks guys,

Ben.

Try removing the soundbar then reconnecting. My Bluetooth properties settings shows on manual (Trigger Start) and running. Yours shows Automatic and stopped.
