Shameless plug but I just re-released my Volume Mixer plugin to the store. It allows you to control the volume of games, programs, and connected Bluetooth sources like phones. I use it all the time since I usually have a podcast or stream going on my phone while playing a game
Yup! The Steam Deck (or Linux really) lets you use it as a Bluetooth speaker. So I connect my phone to the Deck and my AirPods to the deck and can listen to anything that’s playing through my phone and the deck through my headphones.

Thanks for making that plugin! I actually just downloaded the new update for it shortly before making this post.
How does deck + phone work? Your phone uses the speakers on the deck for playback?
