bluetooth/btstack: SCO connection not established (PicoW)

[vladbalmos]

The hfp_hf_demo example from the btstack library stops working once a SCO connection needs to be established after codecs negotiation is successful.

SDK versions: 1.5.0, 1.5.1

Steps to reproduce

1. Set the correct device address of an HFP AG in device_addr_string in pico-examples/hfp_hf_demo.c
2. Enable bt packet logger: hci_dump_init(hci_dump_embedded_stdout_get_instance());
3. Enable bt logging: ENABLE_LOG_INFO, ENABLE_LOG_ERROR
4. Build the hfp_hf_demo example and flash a pico w board
5. Connect to the AG and initiate a call

Expected result A SCO connection should have been established after codec negotiation

Actual result After codec negotiation, no more packets/events are logged, no SCO connection is established, and no more commands can be sent to pico and the device gets disconnected from the AG. It seems the pico is still waiting for a response and stops processing any input (via the STDIN cli)

Tested HFP AGs: iphone se 2020, android (2019 motorola version)

This is a known problem with the WiFi firmware. It should have been documented somewhere (probably not). We're hoping for a fix eventually

[Wolfscowl]

Has the problem been fixed in the meantime or is there any solution for it?

[peterharperuk]

No. Infineon are still working on it.
