Pi 3 bluetooth audio not working

[SebTC]

Just got a fresh image of Raspbian Jessie for my Raspberry Pi 3 B. Updated everything (apt-get update, apt-get upgrade and rpi-update). I'm trying to stream audio from my Android phone to the Raspberry. Testing audio from the audio jack.

Saw this tutorial: https://wiki.debian.org/BluetoothUser/a2dp
Run apt-get install pulseaudio pulseaudio-module-bluetooth (did not use pavucontrol or bluez-firmware).
apt-get install blueman (for pairing visually).

Rest: I can connect with my phone and stream, but the sound is too fast, pops, clicks and stops. Seems like a buffer underrun and strange resampling. When turning the Pi3's Wifi off with

Code: Select all

ifdown wlan0

The sound becomes good, no glitches etc. Saw some tips like using trivial as resampling method (resample-method = trivial)
Disabling suspend on idle module

Code: Select all

#load-module module-suspend-on-idle

Also tried to increase the buffer with default-fragments and default-fragment size, no luck.

Has anyone the a2dp streaming working on the RPI 3 with WLAN enabled, and is there anybody with a solution?

I have the exact same problem, I say more, by turning off the WiFi with

Code: Select all

sudo ifdown wlan0

the audio noise disappears and then it resumes when I reactivate the WiFi with

Code: Select all

sudo ifup wlan0.

You have found a solution to the problem?
Let me know?

I have the same problem! Thanks for the tip for shutting down the wlan.

But I would like to know is there any workarounds?

May I ask which resampling method do you use in pulse daemon config file?
Thanks.

I use

Code: Select all

 resample-method = src-sinc-medium-quality

, but I have the same problem if I use Trivial.

I might have the same problem. Didn't think to try turning off the WIFI but will give it a shot tonight. I'm running Ubuntu Mate so the problem might be unrelated. Has anyone submitted a bug report? It sounds like a firmware update is needed.

 resample-method = src-sinc-medium-quality

, but I have the same problem if I use Trivial.

So you have it working? Can you explain where this line of code is placed?

I can reproduce this, turning the wifi off stops the stuttering.
