Bluetooth audio on stretch

Hello, I started with a clean stretch sd card this weekend. I understand bluetooth audio is supposed to be handled better with Raspbian stretch but I am having issues with it. My bluetooth speaker is paired and shows up in the taskbar(when I right click on the speaker icon), but the audio still defa...

This method should work. Also get rid of blueman if you have it installed.

Hello, I reflashed a microsd card this weekend with raspbian pixel. The current audio default is set to hdmi. I've set the audio to analog via raspi-config or amixer cset numid=3 1 . This setting is good until I reboot the pi and it reverts back to hdmi again. Is there a way to make the analog audio...

Re: Pi0W and bluetooth speaker ?

How's the bluetooth speaker on the new pizero? Is the connection stable?
I was never able to get a stable connection on the pi 3. I eneded up disabling the onboard bluetooth and using a bt dongle.

Re: Pi Zero W WiFi + Bluetooth interference?

As someone who stuggled for months with bluetooth audio before finally realizing that the wifi/bluetooth conflict was causing that error, I had the exact thoughts. Hopefully there's a fix for that pi3 issue and that the new pi zero is immune to it.
All that aside I'm looking forward to getting one.

Re: Bluetooth crash after days

The onboard bluetooth and wifi do not play nicely. See viewtopic.php?f=28&t=140471&start=25
I disabled the onboard bluetooth and I'm using a usb blueooth dongle. I can confirm I get a stable connection for days. I only disconnect it to recharge the speaker.

I understand the sensehat uses 6 data GPIOs, 1 3V and 1 5V pin. My question is how many ground pins does it need? 1 or 2? I did look at ...

Re: Bluetooth Issue

Can you try running

Code: Select all

pulseaudio --start
before right clicking the speaker icon?
Also, you should already have pulseaudio-module-bluetooth installed. If not install it and then repeat the above.
Good luck.

Re: Update Bluez version PI 3

You could try the '--no-install-recommends' flag, but I suspect that won't work. I'm guessing the PulseAudio Bluetooth modules depend on a specific version of BlueZ, and may not even work with a newer version. You could let it reinstall BlueZ 5.23, and then adjust it so it loads your newer version ...
