I use my PocketBook frequently to play audiobooks and occasionally to listen to MP3s (mainly background noise) whilst reading.
I regularly pair two different sets of BT headphones as well as my car stereo to the Pocketbook.
I find it cumbersome to use the PocketBook menu system to connect across these devices, so wrote a shell script to automate the procedure.
Save the code below as a .app file in /mnt/ext1/applications if you'd like to try it. May need a device reboot before it shows in User's section of the app menu.

- The script checks if BT is active, if not it will enable it.
- The Bluetootth settings page is launched to allow a specific device to be paired.
- A dialog box then prompts the user to launch the Audiobook or Media player app.
- Once the audio app is closed, if the script enabled BT it will disable it.
