Thank you for responding, I had reattached the configurations and
outputs with some more info. I have already spent a bloody awful lot of
time on testing with trial and error. I am not an alsa or bluetooth
developer I cannot get it to work. If a capable person could get it
working I would be very great full.
I am also not able to get bluetooth working without adding a sound card
to my system, so i put in a usb sound dongle just to get bluetooth with
alsa working, alsa won't load its modules without it first finding a
soundcard. It is all very very confusing.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Best regards,
Jelle
