Thanks, disabling bluetooth add-on allowed the setting in the UI to persist.

Resolved.

Every time I reboot libreelec, the audio defaults to PA bluetooth. I need it to default to Analog because I am using headphones plugged into the audio jack.

I can force the setting to change with a curl command:

curl -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Settings.SetSettingValue", "params":{"setting":"audiooutput.audiodevice","value":"PI:Analogue"},"id":1}' -H "Content-type: application/json" http://localhost:8080/jsonrpc

I just don't know where to put it. I've put it in autostart.py, but it runs before Kodi starts. I've put it in a script called from autoexec.py, but it doesn't seem to fix the issue (maybe it runs too soon?)

How can I force the Audio setting to stay on Analog? I'm using it in a vehicle with a PI touchscreen, so it will be rebooted a lot (every time I crank the car).

eta: i edited /storage/.kodi/userdata/guisettings.xml

changed the value to the following ("PI:Analogue" is the value I get when I run a curl for getSettings on this value after changing in the GUI.

<setting id="audiooutput.audiodevice">PI:Analogue</setting>

After reboot, it still won't stick.

edit 2 : I had the wrong curl command above.

The rsync command isn't installed by default:

 # rsync
-sh: rsync: not found

# find / -name rsync
(nothing returned)

I've read you need to install Network Tools, but I'm not sure how. I didn't see it listed under Add-ons.

The MAC address stays the same...

edit to add: here is the full output of bluetoothctl show:

Bluetooth speakers work; however, each time I reboot, I have to go to Add-ons -> LibElec Configuration -> Bluetooth -> <select my speakers> -> Connect.

Is there a way to have this setting persist? I'd like it to always connect to these speakers.

I have a Raspberry PI 2 B and a set of speakers which connect through bluetooth. Video goes through HDMI to a projector.

I enabled bluetooth service and paired the speakers through the GUI. I get no audio when I play video.

The wiki says it should just work: Pulseaudio - LibreELEC

I verified that Audio Output is set to "PULSE Default, Bluetooth Audio (PULSEAUDIO)" in the GUI.

Debugging output after ssh-ing in:

Anything else I can look at?

eta: the speakers are turned up and I confirmed they are working. I don't think it's a layer 1 issue.
