I would love to, and still sometimes do, use the dual audio feature but it is unbearable when they are out of sync. I like to use it at work on a construction site... I can listen at a nice volume with ear buds and roam but also have a speaker going so it doesn't sound like I'm working in silence. It would be so awesome to have a sync feature. It seems like with all the different ways devices render the audio that the only way to do it would be with a manual knob

What if other people do not want to hear your music or podcast? There is a reason they make headphones.  Seems like that feature is best utilized when you are in your own space.

I am in my own space when I use speakers and have it on low enough to not bother other people further away. I usually don't like to hear other people's music either so I am considerate about it

I think it's the nature of any dual audio receivers to be slightly out of sync.  I notice it when I connect my BT ear buds to my cable receiver and keep my sound bar on at the same time.  The audio does not always sync up and its annoying.  I am not sure that there's a setting to change that. I think the audio signal reaches different devices at different times. I am not an audio engineer, though.

There is no option I see on my Galaxy S23. I am suggesting a manual sync dial. That would skip having to deal with figuring out how each device handles the timing.

I do not think that's an option on any device.  Because of the nature of radio signals and broadcasting, audio may reach different devices at different times.  The source broadcaster is the control for each device.  I would imagine (I am neither a physicist nor an engineer) that sound waves travel slower to an external device through Bluetooth than it does to the phone, which is the source.
