Bluetooth speakers work on some webpages not others

Question

Bluetooth speakers work on some webpages not others

Weirdest thing: Bluetooth speakers show as connected under "settings." youtube, itunes play through bluetooth speakers as expected, but one page (HBO Now) plays through internal speakers instead (cannot get to play through bluetooth at all), without my having changed a single setting. from the same laptop, if I have both HBO Now playing and a song on iTunes, one comes out through one set of speakers, the other through the other! And it's not just Safari. Same on another browser.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12.6)

I solved it.

You need to dubbelclick/right click on the volume sign on the HBO serie/movie you´re looking at.

Then a pop up window appears, choose installation or preferences.

Another window ´Adobe´ something appears, there you can choose the sound output device (bluetooth) you want to use..

Go to http://www.nbc.com/live (or any other flash video) and right click on the live stream. In the drop down menu, click on Settings. A box "Adobe Flash Player Settings" will open. Click on the Sound/Speaker icon. Use the drop down to choose your Bluetooth speakers.

Having this same issue. There is no such option when I right click on the volume sign on HBO.

Thanks! Right-clicking on the HBO player wasn't working when I originally posted this. It is now working and I am able to select my bluetooth headphones from within the Flash Player settings.
