Hi,
I recently acquired this
bluetooth audio receiver and I'm trying to get it working without any success on an Asus F5VL laptop running Slackware 12.1.
The Asus bluetooth adapter seems to work properly:
Code:
root@mona:~$ lsusb | grep Bluetooth
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0b05:1712 ASUSTek Computer, Inc. BT-183 Bluetooth 2.0+EDR adapter
The bluetooth service starts with this error:
Code:
root@mona:~$ /etc/rc.d/rc.bluetooth start
Starting Bluetooth subsystem: hcid sdpdCan't open RFCOMM control socket: Protocol not supported
rfcomm passkeys.
anyway I continue with:
Code:
root@mona:~$ hciconfig hci0 up
root@mona:~$ hciconfig -a

It can detect the bluetooth audio device:

I set the
ANYCOM BAR-10 passkey (that is the only modification I made to the default Slackware configuration files) and then restart the bluetooth service:
Code:
echo -n "0000" > /etc/bluetooth/passkeys/default
root@mona:~$ /etc/rc.d/rc.bluetooth restart

Following this
How-to I create a
~/.asoundrc:
Code:
gauthier@mona:~$ cat .asoundrc
pcm.bluetooth {
type bluetooth
device 00:17:53:00:F0:FF
profile "auto"
}
And I finally I tried to listen to some music:
Code:
gauthier@mona:~$ mplayer -ao alsa:device=bluetooth test.mp3
...
bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)
[AO_ALSA] Erreur ouverture de lecture : Connection refused
Ne peut ouvrir/initialiser le périphérique audio -> pas de son.
Audio : pas de son
Vidéo : pas de vidéo
and it doesn't work...
Any idea??
Thanks very much.
