Bluetooth audio sink

[jszmidt]

Hi all,
I'd like to use the PINE64 as a Bluetooth audio sink, but unfortunately it appears that the hardware doesn't support this option. Am I missing something? Is it a limitation of the chip or of the driver?


Here's the uname:

Code:

root@pine64:~# uname -a
Linux pine64 3.10.102-2-pine64-longsleep #66 SMP PREEMPT Sat Jul 16 10:53:13 CEST 2016 aarch64 GNU/Linux
root@pine64:~#

Here's the output of bluetoothctl:

Code:

For comparison, here's what it looks like on my laptop (Arch):
