I have never heard of B&H aquiring B&S.
However B&H used an East German supplier for the rotary valves used on the first versions of the Sovereign tenor- and bassbones from about 30 years ago. The ball and socket system is exactly the same as the one used on the instruments from B&S, Hoyer, Wolfram, Scherzer, and Syhre.
