Hi,
I can't comment "Bluez", I don't know how this works. Anyway, it's Still incorrect, since only one sound server could grab the audio device, the other sound sever needs to use the sound server connected to ALSA.

That's simplified, but in this context IMO good enough.

PS: One sound server not necessarily needs to use the other, if you stop one sound sever, before only using the other sound sever, but if you use both at the same time, one sound server has direct ALSA access, the other doesn't have.
