I believe simply adding the CPU utilization is not correct, as input and 
output are handled
within the same thread.
Did you try to run both commands at the same time on different terminals?
It is a slow board and there is no configuration to reduce the CPU load, 
so I am not
sure if it can handle the load. (I suspect that the high load is due to 
the time smoother
in PA which is called for each BT packet, but I cannot prove it.)

Anyway, if it works with pacat (parec is just a link to pacat), it shows 
that there must
be something wrong with your code. I did not yet have the time to look 
at it, sorry.
