Yes I will try using the bluetoothd. Is there any instructions available with the Bluez doc on enabling the plugins for the bluetoothd?

Hi Benjamin,

no top posting on the mailing list. This is a requirement and not a
recommendation.

Can anyone tell whether snd-bt-sco driver and the btsco application are 
still supported in the Linux 2.6.28 and Bluez latest versions?


They haven't been supported for over 3 years. And most likely will not
work or crash your system.

Which are the required ALSA driver for the Bluetooth audio to work?


The bluetoothd comes with plugins for ALSA and GStreamer and PulseAudio
has a native plugin, too.

Regards

Marcel
