Problem:

How to get audio bluetooth playback with my Encode PC-TV (ENLTV-FM) card.

Solution:

My bluetooth device is old and simply don’t work with the newest versions of BlueSoleil, so i’m stuck in this 1.6.x version, which totally sucks. It don’t work right with some specific devices and it’s also got a lot of bugs.

Just to have an idea, as far as i know, the current version is 6.x.

So, because of random issues I can’t have LIVE audio playback comming from the MIC of my onboard card.

Enabling ENLTV Timeshift option resolved the issue.

Problem:

Link my HT-820 headphones with my bluetooth device using fedora.

I’ve searched many places, but nothing worked, I’m able to pair the headphone with hcitool, however there’s no option anywhere to output the audio using the bluetooth.

I also tried to configure sound with ALSA and nothing.

Using a this usefull bluetooth script, i was able to go a little further on the issue, with the error:

Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

Apparently this seemed for me as a SELinux issue, it would be blocking something, but even with SELinux disabled the error persists.

Gnome’s bluetooth applet works good on detecting and pairing the device, however, there’s no place where i can list the services or even connect with them, it only allows me to send or receive files from it. I also tried KDE bluetooth applet, slightly better, but yet, no other pairing options.
