Bluetooth headphones can't hear Onkyo speakers (3 Viewers)

[sud333]

HI!
Just set up a new Onkyo 969 receiver with my home theatre.
Very pleased with it.
However, having difficulty using my JBL bluetooth headphones to hear receiver audio output.
I have successfully paired the headphones with the Onkyo using their bluetooth set up.
I have all my tv, movie etc. audio running through my speakers.
When I turn the headphones on, I can't hear anything.
Am I missing a step ( or two) ?

I don’t believe that unit functions as a Bluetooth transmitter, it appears to only act as a Bluetooth receiver. https://support.onkyousa.com/hc/en-...,BLUETOOTH wireless technology enabled device.

Welcome to HTF James! $1,000 for a 24 year old receiver is laughable. You’d be better off spending $500 on a Denon AVR-S760H that will outperform the Onkyo 989 in every conceivable way.
