you likely have to put the bluetooth speaker back into pairing / discovery mode before it will show up


how you go about doing so differ from speaker to speaker, the documentation of the speaker or the website of the manufacturer would contain info about how


or you can just type into google


<bluetooth speaker model name> pairing mode


and you will likely come across some guides
