I've tried dozens of times and in many different contexts and settings. For the love of me, if I'm trying to do something else while listening to an AudioBook, not a single word is registered by my brain. I would make it through chapters and suddenly realize I have no clue of what is happening in the plot or who the characters are.
It needs to be an activity I can do on autopilot. I'm not listening to books while cooking a new recipe, driving somewhere I've never been, or playing a game that still requires any thought. Even when I can do it on autopilot, I have to pause and/or rewind occasionally (but not terribly often). Regardless, I know not everyone can easily split their attention for this.
