I wasn't able to make it work as a system wide service, I was unable to connect to bluetooth from the systemd service running under root.
I reinstalled pulseaudio and put everything under my user; I also set lingering for my user. Now it is working fine, the only problem I'm having is that after I end my ssh session, the bluetooth gets disconnected. Do you know how could I solve this? Also after a reboot, I have to explicitly connect to the speaker, it does not reconnect automatically on boot. It is a if lingering is not working.
