How can I listen to my blue tooth speaker while plugged into my projector TV via a USB cable with my IPad with lightening connection ? Currently I can see the screen on my projector that is showing on my iPad and can hear the sound through the projector TV. However I would prefer the quality of sound from my blue tooth speaker instead of speaker on projector.
How do I make this happen?
Let me know;
Thanks
Sean

To my knowledge, since the audio and video output is sent from your iPad through the cable, there is no way to do what you want. You have a very old device, with an ancient iOS version. I'm not sure however, if even a newer iPad with the newer iPadOS will let you split the video and audio from cable video output while using Bluetooth speakers. It's possible AirPlay2 will accommodate this. But your device is not capable of running AirPlay2. And the device you're watching video on may not be AirPlay2 compatible.

When sending media output from your iPad to a TV/Monitor/Projector, via HDMI, both audio and video will always be sent to the HDMI output. For your iPad2, this is not configurable.
New models of iPad, that support more recent versions of iPadOS than your iPad2 can support, provide more control over audio output.
