Alow to play spotify/airplay to bluetooth speaker #35

Currently only the local files/radios are able to play via bluetooth. Spotify/Airplay still uses the local alsa device to play music. Would be great if it will be able to play spotify/airplay via bluetooth.

Hi,

It should work. Here are the steps:

Enable BT (in Usage), reboot and configure your BT device
Enable Airplay (in Home Menu)
Change the current ALSA output device to the 'default' in the Shairport-sync (used for Airplay) configuration file /etc/shairport-sync.conf. So, instead of the current: output_device = "hw:Headphones"; specify: output_device = "default";
Reboot (or even better shutdown/power on).

Airplay mode should work with BT device after that.

Best regards
