You probably need to set your wireless speakers as the sound output.


Or in the Sound options in the System Preferences



I have the same issue when turning on my bluetooth headset. The primary sound output (in my case my external Aureon soundcard) stays selected. Unless I select the headset in the sound settings as primary output.
