Connecting Wireless Headphones to Sonos

Is there a way to connect wireless headphones to a Sonos system?  I have a Sonos Port, a number of Sonos speakers, only one of which has Bluetooth capability (Sonos Move).  

 

 I recently purchased a Bluetooth transmitter (Avantree Oasis Plus) hoping i could connect it to the Sonos Port, pair my headphones to the transmitter, effectively turning my headphones into speakers.  

Thanks

Check the volume level on the Port.  You may have a dueling volumes problem.

In some TV’s, use of HDMI-ARC turns off the optical stream. Have you checked that?

Yes, I can send TV sound to other Sonos speakers in other rooms.

I didn’t notice, can you play other music sources through the headphones?

Yes, I can actually connect the headphones directly with Bluetooth to the TV with low quality stereo

Should the Arc be able to transmit the sound to the Port which, in turn, sends the sound to the connected Bluetooth transmitter which outputs the sound to wireless Bluetooth headphones?

You should be able to play music through the headphones while they are connected to PORT.

The Bluetooth headphones pair with the Bluetooth transmitter but no sound comes out of the headphones.

Got it to work!  I had the Fiio set to the wrong output 🤷🏻‍♂️

You mean the wrong input? Easily done, as the BTA30 Pro defaults to USB initially.
