I'm running Fedora on a home server with wired speakers connected. I have set up the Pulseaudio as A2DP Bluetooth device. I can connect my Android phones to it and play music. But my MacBook fails to do the same. The Mac is successfully paired with my PC. Also, I set to use PC as audio device on Mac. After I start playing music - the Mac connects to PC via bluetooth automatically, hangs for some time and then says, that it failed to use bluetooth device to play audio - and disconnects. No actual sound is produced. Pulseaudio version: 4.0 Bluez version: 5.12
PulseAudio 4.0 does not support bluez5. For this to work you would either need to use bluez4 or use a git snapshot of PulseAudio. Note current git master only supports A2DP over bluez5.
It seems, that Fedora already ships snapshots. Their last package is built on the commit 'f81e3' (Oct 9) - is it too old to solve my problem? Or should I try the really latest snapshot?
The snapshot should be fine.
