[arch-general] bluetooth audio adapter without playback
Merry Christmas to all Archer's out there ! :) Sadly enough I recognized a problem with my Logitech bluetooth adapter on Christmas Eve. This adapter connects my laptop with my stereo system so I can use the speakers of the stereo system wireless. This has worked for several months. But with the last update of pulseaudio (GNOME as DE) this connection broke permanently and I realized it the first time just when I wanted to play some Christmas music. :( :) The adapter indicates that a connection has been established, I also see the bluetooth adapter in the mixer but when I start to play some music again the internal laptop speaker are used for output. This is not related to the question if I started the music player before or after pairing with the adapter. A look in /var/log/messages.log for useful messages leads me to this line: moria pulseaudio[1480]: [pulseaudio] module-bluetooth-device.c: Profile has no transport Is this caused by this bug [1] - or not, because the description relates to pa 2.99.2, and I have 3.0.2 installed ? Anyone with a hint for me ? Kind regards, Nelson. [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57239

Do you have the sbc package installed?

Yes, sbc was installed already. A re-installation didn't help. The problem could be solved in another way. After re-pairing did not take effect, I searched once again for the complete error message and I found a discussion [1] that showed the solution. The ArchWiki [2] suggets to add in /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf section "[General]" a line "Enable=Socket" for enabling audio-streaming. This options seems to cause the problems I experienced (not caused by pulseaudio but by bluez not cooperating completely with dbus API). In the beginning there were two lines in my conf: "Enable=Source" and "Enable=Socket". Then I removed the source-line after reading the article [2]. The solution is to remove "Socket" so the option is "Enable=". Restarting the bluetooth daemon - and the log shows just an entry for the succesful connection with the audio adapter. Kind regards, Nelson. [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org/msg0524... [2] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluez#Audio_streaming
