On my PC, once paired i simply turn the bt device off to disconnect and turn it on to connect. on DTV I have to go through the pairing each time to connect even though it shows paired.

Hi, rmcii. We're sorry if you have to do the pairing each time to connect. You can try to reset your Gemini device and do the pairing again. Learn more here Reset or refresh your DIRECTV box | DIRECTV Customer Service & Support Let us know if that helps. - Carissa, DIRECTV Community Specialist

Can the Gemini output audio to two Bluetooth headphones at the same time? I have two paired but after I connect the first the second won't connect. Sometimes the second even says connected in the interface but no sound comes out.
