Using Bluetooth and Airplay simutaneously

I have an iPad in which I want to cast using Airplay to a non-smart TV (via a Roku Express device) and use a Bluetooth device that's connected to my stereo system, but it seems like I can only use one at a time for some reason. Is there any way that I can use both?

The iOS is up to date to 17.0.2.

Thank you in advance!

iPad (6th generation)

Thanks! I really hope the next update can fix this since TV speakers are always such horrible quality and most people prefer to use a bluetooth-equipped soundbar or theater system.

iOS/iPadOS don't have a way to separate the audio like you're describing. Audio and Video will go through AirPlay. You would need to see if the Roku can connect to the stereo system, probably.
