When using an external speaker (regardless if it's via the AUX port, Bluetooth, or some other way), Echo devices will not play on both the built-in speaker and the external speaker. You must choose one, as it will not work on both. If your speaker is connected via Bluetooth and it is off or not available, the Echo should revert back to its built-in speaker.
