An A2DP sink is needed when playing e.g. a song from a mobile phone to the
(linux) PC, right?! That is also what I want to do.

Could you be a little more specific on what has to be done, and how much time
you think a developer would need for implementing and testing it? Is it a
matter of days, weeks, or months?
