Many headsets will allow you to connect to multiple devices, giving you the audio of whichever one is actively playing at the time. But, I am not aware of any that do it "simultaneously", which really annoys me.
I want to be able to listen to music or watch a video on my computer, but still get alerts, alarms, and notifications from my phone. To the best of my knowledge, headset manufacturers are not doing this. If you're listening to one audio source, the other is muted. You can't listen to the second device until you stop the audio from the first.
I have been thinking about making a pocket-sized audio mixer with multiple Bluetooth audio receivers and a single Bluetooth audio transmitter. You would pair your headset to the device, and pair the device's receivers to your various Bluetooth audio sources. I'd prefer to just buy one, but I can't find anything like it in a simple, portable form factor.
