[opensuse-factory] Workarounds for Buggy Bluetooth Audio
I have problems with getting all my Bluetooth audio device pairing and working when first paired, and these steps nearly always get them to work, so I was wondering whether there is a root cause that can be pinned down and fixed as a bug report. Device: Mee Audio Air-Fi Rumble Headphone 1. No sound when paired. 2. Open Audio and Video system settings module in KDE. 3. Wait for it to appear, and select Air-Fi Rumble in Device Preference > Audio Playback and click Test. 4. Test audio plays and now audio works. Device: Bluedio Wireless Headset 1. No sound when paired. 2. Device not activated in Audio and Video system settings module in KDE. 3. Select Audio Hardware Setup > Soundcard > Bluedio 4. Toggle Profile to A2DP Sink (device not activated with this selection, but will be with HSP/HFP!) 5. Device will still be greyed out in Device Preference. Unpair and pair device again. 6. Device will show up in Device Preference, but without audio. 7. Select Bluedio and press the Test button. 8. Test audio plays and now audio works. I am not sure why both devices are treated differently, but it is certain that the Air-Fi is the more expensive device. Thoughts?

Not sure what exactly the KDE tools do, but if you use (just) bluetoothctl and pulseaudio - I can tell how if needed - is the success rate better? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

How? :-) Wiki page perhaps? There is no BT stack in XFCE to my knowledge, so I would like to try another means. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

# bluetoothctl BT# power on -- at this point, devices paired in the past are usable -- BT# agent on BT# default-agent BT# discoverable on BT# pairable on BT# scan on BT# pair XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX after that, the sound device should show up in `pavucontrol` and be usable from media players when they are set to use libpulse. Likewise, Internets shared by BT devices should show in the NetworkManager tray icon menu now. If not, use `rfkill` to unblock(enable) more software layers. rfkill is the most fine grained operation there is; other ways are rightclick NM tray icon, or use of the Fn special laptop keys for coarse grain dis-/enable. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

It works until here after I unpaired the device.

Device does not appear here, and is also not found in the audio module in KDE's System Settings. So unfortunataly, not as good as the workaround I have now. I should add I misused the word "pair/unpair" for the word "connect/ disconnect" which may have led to some misunderstanding. I have no problem pairing the device, and connecting to it. Just no luck with audio.

Right, I had another go with another sound device, and that reminded me of all the things still needed to be done. 1. ensuring pulseaudio-bluetooth is installed (may need restart?) 2.

Sorry for the late reply. Since this email, bluetooth audio has been working far more consistently. It would seem that I just need to wait for a bit after pairing and the audio will Just Work (TM), presumably because stuff is being loaded in the background out of sight. Also, I got new Bluetooth headphones that seem to work far better than either of my previous devices. Yay for progress!

It offers two: Headset Head Unit (HSP/HPP) and I hear something about "Call active, Phone 1" Or I can change to "High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink)" I play a video, but I don't hear it on the phone, it is going to the laptop speakers. Ah, I have to go to the "Playback" tab and change the output device Mplayer is using. :-) Well, it does work, thanks. :-) A bit complicated, though... - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

I (later) figured you need the normal user for bluetoothctl, because that would be the program to spawn (if not running yet) and/or connecting to the pulseaudio instances -- which root has none of, but the user does.
I try as user, I can not even start:
cer@minas-tirith:~> bluetoothctl [bluetooth]# power on No default controller available
Yeah don't know how that happens. But with the mess that modern desktop systems are, it does not surprise me.

I got it working in the end, but it is all very confusing and I don't know how to repeat. I had to unplug-replug the adapter to try again. Pairing failed initially, because computer and earphones had already been paired in the past. Then the paired, but I don't know what I did that caused it. And sound played. I exited "bluetoothctl" program, powered off and on the earphones, and they paired automatically. Maybe the "bluetoothctl" magic only needs been done once per session unless I disconnect the dongle. Maybe also after hibernation. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

I have problems with getting all my Bluetooth audio device pairing and working when first paired, and these steps nearly always get them to work, so I was wondering whether there is a root cause that can be pinned down and fixed as a bug report.
Device: Mee Audio Air-Fi Rumble Headphone
1. No sound when paired. 2. Open Audio and Video system settings module in KDE. 3. Wait for it to appear, and select Air-Fi Rumble in Device Preference > Audio Playback and click Test. 4. Test audio plays and now audio works.
Device: Bluedio Wireless Headset
1. No sound when paired. 2. Device not activated in Audio and Video system settings module in KDE. 3. Select Audio Hardware Setup > Soundcard > Bluedio 4. Toggle Profile to A2DP Sink (device not activated with this selection, but will be with HSP/HFP!) 5. Device will still be greyed out in Device Preference. Unpair and pair device again. 6. Device will show up in Device Preference, but without audio. 7. Select Bluedio and press the Test button. 8. Test audio plays and now audio works.
I am not sure why both devices are treated differently, but it is certain that the Air-Fi is the more expensive device.
Thoughts? Is this Leap or TW? For leap, you may kindly join your experience here: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=991612

TW. But it could work with Leap? No harm in giving it a shot.
