Did you try it via a plug device > or did you use the device directly? not sure how to answer your question. so i created the ~/.asoundrc file with: pcm.S9bluetoothraw { type bluetooth device 00:0D:FD:23:1A:DE } pcm.S9bluetooth { type plug slave { pcm S9bluetoothraw } } and then from audacious I tell it to use ALSA Output plugin for it's audio system and set S9bluetooth as the audio device. > > Personally I'm waiting for PulseAudio's bluetooth support to get > completed because I find the ALSA driver a bit unreliable and > impractical. It sometimes crashes the player and heaven forbid you go > out of range! I use pulse audio at my home computer and it just works, no issues. I created the asundrc file and issue the "pactl load-module module-alsa-sink device=S9bluetooth" command every time I want to use it and used pavucontrol the first time to configure it to use shared outputs. But on my work computer shared output won't work and if I start sending audio out to the S9 and then another application (say Pidgin) sends audio everything crashes. That's why I'm hoping to use just audacious with ALSA.
