Hi, I am trying get a bluetooth headset working with bluez4. most documentation (even on the bluez site) is is for bluez3 and not applicable.
Ive installed bluez4, the gnome bluetooth applet (2.26) associates with the headset fine. The headset is a Motorols S9 and I primarily want just a2dp playback, but it would be nice to get the mic working as well (for VoIP/egiga/...) at some point. But alsa reports: [AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: pcm.c:2211:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM bluetooth [AO_ALSA] Playback open error: No such file or directory Failed to initialize audio driver 'alsa:device=bluetooth' Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound. Audio: no sound Video: no video Ive tried adding the bluetooth stanza as both a separate stanza "pcm.bluetooth", and as "bluetooth" within the existing pcm scope in /etc/asound.names. The headset works on a freerunner (SHR using a2dp) but its not working on the laptop under gentoo :( Anyone got a usable bluez4 guide, or knows how to do this?
