In XMPP we use resources and priorities to deliver messages. If a user 
uses multiple clients for simultaneous logins then you have to send your 
message to all his/her resources. This means you have to send the same 
message to each resource or use Extended Stanza Addressing.

Or you have to use another model to broadcast your messages (eg pubsub).
