RE: Configuring two Sound devices at same tine in Windows 8?

> can one have two output devices working at the same time in Windows 8?

In general, yes.

We will need to have more information about the software you use to play music. Also, can you describe more about the bluetooth device.

Windows keeps track of the default device for audio output. Some players send audio output to the default device. If you change the default device, output goiers there instead of to the previouslt designited default device.

Some players provide a way fore you to choose any of the available audio output devices. The software that I use (JRiver MC) does.

Fewer players allow you to send a single audio output stream to two output devices at the same time. JRiver MC does.

Some players allow you to send a different independently audio stream to each of several audio output devices. JRiver MC does.

So tell us what player software you are using and more about what you want to do.
