Not recognised as an audio device #1

Hi,

I've went step-by-step by your readme on a clean RPi 64-bit lite OS, but python-gobject and python-gobject-2 could not be installed, and even when all of other things were done (including the bluetooth pairing), my device could pair successfully, but it could not stream any music to it.

It's been a while since I have used this setup. When you pair your device and then connect it, does the Raspberry Pi show up as a media device through the device you connected with?

FilipSzkandera commented 2 years ago

Nope, I can only connect to it. I've tried different softwares before and I verified I could play music through bluetooth, so maybe there is a step I missed during the setup...

Did you update /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf and start pulseaudio before connecting your device to the Pi? I think if you don't, that would explain why the Pi does not show up as an audio device over Bluetooth.

If running pulseaudio -D before the next time you connect your device to the Pi doesn't work, I can look at verifying this on a new Raspbian Lite image to see if updates need to be made to the instructions.
