Does Multipoint functionality in headphones allow you to listen to two different devices at the same time?

I have been using an audio mixer at my desk for a while now so I can do things like listen to music while I play video games but I am wondering if Multipoint could replace my audio mixer and simplify my setup. Would it allow me to listen to two different devices at the same time?

I have been reading about Multitpoint on websites selling compatible headphones (Jabra and Google) and it doesn’t sound like this is the case. It sounds like it’s simply a faster means of switching back and forth between devices. What makes me second guess this though are posts I have seen in forums suggesting Multipoint is the solution I am looking for.

If not could some wireless DAC be the solution?

    I can’t seem to pull up my post history but I’ve asked something similar before if you can see one of my few posts. In there people say they’ve been successful with a few kinds of headphones.

    I currently run an abomination of a 4 way physical mixer with 2 input jacks and 2 Bluetooth receivers – into 1 output Bluetooth. If I need to travel lighter I fallback to software for 2 to 1.
