DDJ400 + bluetooth speakers + headphones Problem

 
Hi. I use a bluetooth kit to connect to a home audio system. I'm trying to set the rekordbox with bluetooth system. Unfortunately, when the bluetooth output device is selected, the headphones do not work. After selecting the "built in output" option, the sound plays only from the laptop's speakers despite the fact that the rest of the system sounds play on the bluetooth speakers. The headphones work only in the "built in" option (and ddj400 with cable connection too). After selecting the DDJ400 + both output option, when I select the "both" option it automatically deselects and returns to previous options. Restarting and reinstalling rekordbox doesn't help :( help. In the ddj400 + chinch option, the cable is ok. Unfortunately, I have a broken leg and the stereo is far away from me, I can't connect it with a cable.

System: Catalina 10.15.1, Rekordbox 5.80. I have no idea, I tried all options, midi, default devices, :(

rekordbox does not play nice with Bluetooth output options; we do not recommend using it. Sorry.

Thank you for your answer! Everything worked great before the update macOS&RB was done. :-( In the "ddj-400" option I used the "both output" option then the sound played as the default playback device (bt) and the headphones also worked. I do a clean install rekordbox, now my rekordbox didn't see my bluetooth hardware on list (bt is connected, system sound works without any issue). I'm disappointed because few days ago I played from my bed without any cables :(

Hey Rekordbox, any new features since this last post to allow wired headphones while having bluetooth speaker output?  There's some really great bluetooth sound systems now (very little lag, easy setup without all the cables), and I would love to still be able to use my headphones.
