Sony WH-CH730N: check media from a second connected source
Sony WH-CH730N — Confirm both live connections before comparing source handover.
Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Exact WH-CH730N with two already-paired, actively connected Bluetooth sources; no call in progress. Pausing the first media is a controlled comparison, not a claimed CH730N requirement.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Switching between devices isn’t working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at both. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
