Help Bluetooth always on for headphones?

Hey everyone, I just bought a pair of bluetooth headphones, they're fantastic and I really enjoy not having to be tied to my phone when listening to music, but I have one issue. Once my phone locks, the bluetooth automatically shuts off (on the phone) so I have to unlock, turn it back on, and pair it again. Is there an app or feature that I can leave bluetooth on even when the phone is locked? Ive searched up and down and can't seem to find a fix. This is also an issue when using the bluetooth headset to make a call. If anyone knows a way around it, id appreciate it greatly. Thanks!
 
What brand are the headphones and headset?

I use blueant, jawbone and a samsung all with no problems. Never had my bluetooth turn off when the phone locked.
 
Its a GoGroove BlueBar. Its a little bluetooth reciever that you can plug regular headphones into. It also happens when I use my motorola bluetooth headset, once the phone goes to sleep, the bluetooth shuts off. Even if im not using a device, if I just turn the bluetooth on, it shuts off once the phone is locked.
