If you're on Windows 10, version 2004 or later, and the bluetooth chips in both laptops support it, you can get the app "Bluetooth Audio Receiver" from the Windows store on the device you want to use as the speaker. I don't use Windows so I'm not currently able to test whether it works, but you might find this post useful.

 

@robotxbotI'm not sure what you're talking about, various other posts online suggest you are incorrect.

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.

Why use bluetooth when both laptops are already on the same network?

You need a remote desktop connection that supports sound... nomachine, even TeamViewer supports it.

But if you want to save bandwidth and CPU resources, there are some sound only streaming apps too.

I remember messing with Raspberry Pi PULSEAUDIO something, but don't recall the details. When even cheap ARM  device can handle it, laptops will 4 sure.
