in response to a Bluetooth (BT) trigger at a first BT device, attempting to determine a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) from a set of additional BT devices paired to the first BT device,
if an RSSI from a first additional BT device is a highest RSSI from the set of additional BT devices and exceeds an RSSI from a second additional BT device with a second-highest RSSI by a threshold, selecting the first additional BT device for connection with the first BT device, and
if a difference between the RSSI from the first additional BT device and the RSSI from the second additional BT devices does not exceed the threshold, selecting either the first additional BT device or the second additional BT device for connection with the first BT device based on a BT connection hierarchy for the set of additional BT devices paired to the first device.
