Thank you a lot for your fast reply. I already figured that I had to edit asound.conf somehow. My problem is, I do not know which device I have to insert there for pulse audio. Using aplay -L only lists the alsa devices.
Also, the command /storage/.config/usepulse is not found. Is usepulse supposed to be an executable inside .config? For me at least it's not there.
So the only thing I've change so far is to add pactl load-module module-udev-detect (and the other lines) to my autostart.sh, which enables the connect to my bt speakers on startup.
BTW aplay -L shows the following output:

Hey escalade,
and thank you the great build! I have it running on the basic asus chromebox and it works nicely (so nice in fact that I sent a few € your way).
I do have one small problem though: my audio is output via bluetooth (using pulse audio) which works nicely inside kodi.
However, when using apps like chrome or spotify they do not account for these settings & I get no audio at all. Furthermore, starting them somehow messes up pulse audio and I have to restart the box to get working audio inside kodi again.
In retroarch I could set the correct driver but I have no idea how to do that for chrome/spotify.
Could anyone point me in the right direction how to do that?
