PI Zero W Bluetooth audio

Hey

I have the exact same issue. I guess that confirms my feeling that its a bug or we both did something wrong. Hopefully we get something figured out.

the weird part is that it works fine when i'm in raspbian jessie w/ PIXEL, but doesnt work in LibreELEC.

EDIT:just checked LibreELEC and everything is working fine except for bluetooth. Looking around I've seen alot of posts about how to send audio to the pi but not the reverse which is strange.

you'd think other people would have ran into this.

also i tried to connect after the bluetooth connection drop when i started playing audio and it connected and stayed connected for a while but no sound. somehow i think pulseaudio is defaulting and forcing HDMI which it's not supposed to do.

found how to past log files they are here: bEJB

um oops make sure that theres and uppercase one because that log was not mine 0_0

I also have the suspicion that the culprit is pulseaudio. As long as audio is set to HDMI the bluetooth connection is stable. As I switch to pulseaduio and move the cursor for the first time (the first sound should go through the BT connection) it immediately disconnects.

same here. reading through the log file i see something related to pulseaudio output a failure code. also it says something in my music.tdb is unsupported. ill look more into it today.

Any news on this? I'm struggling with the same problem for months now and did not find any solution.
