Pairing wireless headsets to streaming devices

I was playing around with my DirecTV Stream box and recalled I had seen bluetooth options. I just bought a pair of BOSE Quiet Comfort earphones and put 2 and 2 together. I've come to realize that I can pair my headphones to DirecTV Stream and listen to TV in bed while my wife sleeps. So awesome and very convenient. I've removed all ROKUs, FireTV Sticks, Chromcast, GoogleTV and TivoStream boxes from my TVs so I can't test any of them now without some effort.

Just wondering if I missed the option to stream on any of the other big streamers. It's a game changer.

I can connect my hearing aids to my Dish Hopper and FireTVstick with bluetooth, but usually I just connect them to the TV bluetooth adapter so it doesn't matter which programming source I'm using for viewing. In the bedroom, I just connect my aids to the FireTVstick, since that's the only programming source we use there for streaming both Dish and various other apps.
