Thank you castalla.
I'm on Fedora 19. As far as I understand this, there is some Bluez stuff
already installed (like hciconfig) on the Wandboard.
You are right, this BT thing is very poorly documented and is very very
confusing.
When you say that you had to copy some files from a Debian setup, are
you referring to /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_bluetooth.so?
As far as I understood while fiddling with this, we need to install
Bluez-utils-asla in order to be able to play music on a BT audio device.
