Hello all, is there any way to make paired (but currently not connected) BT devices available as a sink? The autodetect finds only connected devices and the BT modules don't seem to have any options to specifically create a sink e.g. by its MAC address. Background of the question: for Libreelec on RPi4, I want simultanous output to HDMI-TV and to some BT-Speaker. I can achieve the desired behavior by connecting the BT-speaker and then executing: pactl load-module module-udev-detect pactl load-module module-combine-sink slaves=alsa_output.0.hdmi-stereo,bluez_sink.A4_77_58_02_93_FB.a2dp_sink Once those commands were successfully executed, I can switch the BT-speaker off and on and PA catches up without any noticeable problems. Unfortunately, those commands will NOT work from boot-scripts, since module-combine-sink will error out complaining that the BT-sink is not available. Any ideas how to work around this?
Hi, if you load module-combine-sink without the slaves argument, it should add newly appearing sinks automatically to the combine sink. Regards Georg
