[Bluez-users] How to setup a headset as an audio device? Getting "Device busy" errors

[Bluez-users] How to setup a headset as an audio device? Getting "Device busy" errors

[SA]

Hello,

My boss has just purchased a "Jawbone" bluetooth headset (cell phone type) 
that he wants to hook up to his computer to use like skype.

I found instructions for old btsco first, and plugz. I saw that btsco was 
outdated but I tried plugz and sbc first.

Then I saw on http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices the following:

"Note: you will not need bluetooth-alsa, plugz, btsco or the like for audio to 
work. They are obsolete. "

The steps there are listed as

1. Make sure the audio service is installed and enabled 
(file /etc/bluetooth/audio.service should exist)

2. modify your ~/.asoundrc to contain

pcm.bluetooth {
   type bluetooth
   device 00:11:22:33:44:55
}
3. configure your audio application to use the alsa device "bluetooth". See 
Supported Players 
http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices#SupportedPlayers for some 
examples.
4. start playing :) 

Which is wonderfully simple, but it did not work for me. I also tried it on my 
own computer. Both computers have OpenSuSE 10.3. I used the KDE bluetooth 
manager to pair the devices. It shows up correctly in "hcitool scan"

The correct Bluetooth address is 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89, so I tried this on both 
computers (for the remainder of this email I will focus on my own computer - 
once I get it working here I can make it work on my boss's laptop too)

Here's my /etc/bluetooth/audio.service:
[Bluetooth Service]
Identifier=audio
Name=Audio service
Description=Bluetooth Audio service


Here's my ~/.asoundrc:
pcm.bluetooth {
   type bluetooth
   device 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89
}

I have the following bluez packages installed:

bluez-utils-3.18-12
bluez-libs-3.18-5


When I try to configure any of the players as recommended by the page 
http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices#SupportedPlayers the best 
response I get is "Device Busy" from amarok and Kaffiene (xine engine) like 
this:

"Audio output unavailable; the device is busy.
xine parameters: "

MPlayer, when I try to run the suggested command 
"mplayer -ao alsa:device=bluetooth"
prints out the options/argument list as though I'm using an incorrect command.

I can't configure audacious at all, under Audio the "Current output plugin" 
has no option to select, and all the other preferences are grayed out too.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make this work?

Thanks,

	JW

Hello,
try to
aplay -v -D bluetooth './your-sound.wav'
and send its output. Else, did you started bluetooth audio service?
To check, use:
ps ax | grep bluetoothd-service-audio

Regards,
Eugene

BTW I started off using KDE and the bluetooth applet to pair the device. It is 
now listed in the "Paired/Trusted Devices" screen. It it also listed in 
the "Configured Input Devices" section of "Input Devices".

I'm a little suspicious of the KDE applets, does anyone know what tools to use 
on the commandline to make sure that the connection/pairing is good? It shows 
up with hcitool scan:


citrine:~ # hcitool scan
Scanning ...
        00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89       Jawbone
#

Output of trying to play:

:~> aplay -v -D bluetooth /work/tmp/Audio-tmp/11\ -\ How\ Can\ I\ Keep\ From\ 
Singing-.wav
ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1189:(bluetooth_init) Connection fail
aplay: main:546: audio open error: Connection refused

I don't see anything useful in /var/log/messages

I tried deleting the pairing, re-pairing and immediately doing the "aplay" 
test and still I get the same error.

As far as the bluetooth audio service, I'm not sure. As I mentioend, I'm on 
SuSE 10.3. It only has /etc/init.d/bluetooth which I think is supposed to 
handle all types of bluetooth connections - like a wrapper or something.

ps ax |grep blue
27467 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/hcid -s -f /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
27472 ?        S      0:00 /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd-service-input


# cat /etc/bluetooth/audio.service
[Bluetooth Service]
Identifier=audio
Name=Audio service
Description=Bluetooth Audio service

My bluetooth adapter is the good old USB D-Link DBT 120 that works on 
everything (Mac, Linux etc).

hcitool con shows:

# hcitool con
Connections:


hcitool rssi 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89
Not connected.


I'm not sure what that means. I wonder if it means it's not really connected?

^^^^^ Obviously you're not running the audio service.

I thought the bluetooth service /etc/init.d/bluetooth started all the services 
but I guess it's not working.

There is a file, /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd-service-audio which belongs to 
the package bluez-utils. Should I just run it from the terminal? How is it 
*supposed* to be configured?

I tried running it from the terminal and I got this:

edit /etc/bluetooth/audio.service and make sure you've enabled
autostart. restart bluetooth if you changed the file. I'll make sure
this is mentioned in the wiki.

Thanks Brad.

Ok so now I removed the device pairing and I had in the KDE "Paired/Trusted 
Devices" manager and edited /etc/bluetooth/audio.service so that it now 
contains this:

[Bluetooth Service]
Identifier=audio
Name=Audio service
Description=Bluetooth Audio service
Autostart=true


I got the "Autostart=true" from searching the wiki, it showed up on 3 pages 
about devices.

I restarted /etc/init.d/bluetooth, and then restarted kbluetooth, paired with 
the device again, it showed as connected for a little while and the logs 
in /var/log/messages are a little better but still it is not working. Here 
is /var/log/messages output:

aplay still gives errors:

ALSA lib pcm_bluetooth.c:1108:(bluetooth_cfg) Error 22 while configuring 
device
aplay: main:546: audio open error: Invalid argument


I tried it a second time too.

Someone suggested I add this to my .asoundrc:


pcm.my_bt_convert {
     type plug
     slave {
        pcm "bluetooth"
     }
}



And use:

aplay -v -D my_bt_convert /work/tmp/hcikfs.wav


But I get the same errors:

Re: [Bluez-users] How to setup a headset as an audio device? Getting "Device busy" errors

[SA]

In the last message I may have caused some confusion.

Each time I try aplay I get this in /var/log/messages (doesn't matter which 
aplay command example I try):

Re: [Bluez-users] How to setup a headset as an audio device? Getting "Device busy" errors

[SA]

I just found out that this headset does not support HSP:

# sdptool search --bdaddr 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89 HS
Searching for HS on 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89 ...
#



sdptool search --bdaddr 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89 HF
Searching for HF on 00:0D:3C:6F:0E:89 ...
Service Name: Hands-Free unit
Service RecHandle: 0x10000
Service Class ID List:
  "Handsfree" (0x111e)
  "Generic Audio" (0x1203)
Protocol Descriptor List:
  "L2CAP" (0x0100)
  "RFCOMM" (0x0003)
    Channel: 1
Language Base Attr List:
  code_ISO639: 0x656e
  encoding:    0x6a
  base_offset: 0x100
Profile Descriptor List:

    Version: 0x0101



It's a "Jawbone" headset, from jawbone.com. Good quality. Apparently bad 
engineering or design.

So it should work using Hands-Free Profile,
with /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf containing at least :
DisableHFP=false

Regards,

Guillaume B.

It autostarts when hcid and friends start up.

You never need touch the stuff in /usr/lib/bluetooth (to run it).

Well, there you go. Look in the bluez-utils src and pull out the audio.conf 
and stick it in the /etc/bluetooth dir. Edit the audio.service file:

cat /etc/bluetooth/audio.service

[Bluetooth Service]
Identifier=audio
Name=Audio service
Description=Bluetooth Audio service
Autostart=true



Note most of the services are missing the Autostart line. I add it and set it 
to true, and that at least gets the service running here.
