I have spent some time trying to get an A2DP audio sink working with the alsa plugin but have had no luck (bluez 4.101 using bluez-tools). I see the alsa plugin has been removed in bluez 5 and everyone is using the pulse audio plugin; but this isn't an option on our system as we can't run pulseaudio. Has anyone had an a2dp stereo sink working with just the alsa plugin? The sink shows up on an iPad and I play audio but the stream seems to keep suspending: bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_parse_cmd() Received START_CMD bluetoothd[24673]: audio/a2dp.c:start_ind() Sink 0x54b50758: Start_Ind bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_ref() 0x54b57388: ref=3 bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_sep_set_state() stream state changed: OPEN -> STREAMING bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_unref() 0x54b57388: ref=2 bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:session_cb() bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_parse_resp() SUSPEND request succeeded bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_sep_set_state() stream state changed: STREAMING -> OPEN bluetoothd[24673]: audio/a2dp.c:suspend_cfm() Sink 0x54b50758: Suspend_Cfm bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:session_cb() bluetoothd[24673]: audio/avdtp.c:avdtp_parse_cmd() Received START_CMD I tried tracing through an "arecord -f cd -c 2 -D Bluetooth | aplay" but it was failing on the refine capabilities. First without a supported channel format so I added "mode stereo" to asound.conf. Then channels succeeded but was saying no supported formats. If the alsa plugin does not work for a stereo a2dp sink, I am wondering if anyone can help me with a simple method that can pipe audio straight to aplay, is this possible? Any programs or scripts that can do this? If not, would my best option be looking through the pulseaudio plugin and writing a standalone program to do the same thing except? Appreciate any help you can give.
