1. A binaural hearing system comprising a first hearing device and a second hearing device, wherein:
the first hearing device comprises a first RF transceiver and a first communication controller connected to the first RF transceiver;
the first hearing device is configured to communicate with a first auxiliary device;
the second hearing device comprises a second RF transceiver and a second communication controller connected to the second RF transceiver;
the second hearing device is configured to communicate with a second auxiliary device; and
the binaural hearing system is configured to facilitate a communication of data between the first auxiliary device and the second auxiliary device by:
performing a primary communication with the first auxiliary device utilizing the first RF transceiver of the first hearing device;
performing a secondary communication with the second auxiliary device utilizing the second RF transceiver of the second hearing device; and
performing a tertiary communication between the second hearing device and the first hearing device;
wherein the binaural hearing system is configured to perform the primary communication before the tertiary communication, and to perform the tertiary communication before the secondary communication.
