My experience is that having paired a bluetooth headset to multiple devices, it will automatically connect to all the devices that are up and within range when the headset is turned on.
My experience further is that issues tend to arise when a headset is paired with devices from disparate operating environments, e.g. both a Mac and an Android device seem to introduce problems for my devices. Consequently, I'm trying to avoid using the same bt headset across OS.
