How should I do to set the wanted alsa device to output the audio received from Bluetooth? In my case I would like to set it to a loopback, since that's what I use for snapcast (already works with spotify connect and airplay)

You need to configure PulseAudio to use a specific ALSA output device. I don't really know how this works, but maybe this helps: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PulseAudio/Examples#Set_the_default_output_sink

BTW, Spotify Connect and AirPlay should also send audio through PulseAudio (not ALSA directly) to avoid concurrency and locking problems.
