[PROBLEM] Bluetooth Audio output (Transmitter)

[IriDium]

Well I THINK I have got this working reliably. Three times in succession .

However, the quality is appalling. Stuttering and glitches, so not something you'd really use.

(This might be a configuration issue or worse kernel issue.) If so, a new thread is required.

These are the steps I took.

Terminal

sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth

(Thanks to @abdulmueid for the next steps)

Terminal

sudo gpasswd -a xbian pulse
sudo gpasswd -a xbian lp
sudo gpasswd -a pulse lp
sudo gpasswd -a xbian audio
sudo gpasswd -a pulse audio
sudo reboot

I also set the class but it didn't seem to make any difference.

Terminal

hcitool scan
hcitool inq
sudo hciconfig hci0 class 0xXXXXXX

(Where 0xXXXXXX is the class from the previous step

<Turn on BT scan mode>

Terminal

sudo bluetoothctl -a
power on
scan on
pair xxxx
trust xxxx
exit

Terminal

killall pulseaudio

<Restarts pulseaudio>

Terminal

sudo bluetoothctl -a
connect xxxx

After a little wait, something should be heard through the speaker.

After a reboot, it sometimes doesn't connect automatically so rerun the connect xxxxxxx
