Pulseaudio dropouts in Kodi only

[IriDium]

I wonder if you are possibly a little confused.

The ALSA: Pulseaudio sound server is for transmitting the audio output to a bluetooth audio device (e.g. headphones) - yes the quality can be a bit bad. See Thread

You want to receive bluetooth audio.

So to use the hifiberry-amp, just select (snd_pi_hifiberry_amp)

(Somewhere is a thread I wrote about receiving BT audio, but I'll be damned if I can find it)
