The recommended is to use pulseaudio to decode the frames and offer a source abstraction for applications. If you want the audio to be sent to your speakers, you can use module-loopback (in pulseaudio) for that. > 3) Some times my audio configuration setting is getting crashed once I > play the song from mobile. > Is this know issue? > No clues, you need to elaborate more if you want any help. > Do I need to enable any flag on bluez/pulseaudio to succeed this? > or any specific kernel patch do I need to apply? > Please advice. > No kernel nor userspace patches. You just need to enable the AudioSource interface in bluez and use pulseaudio bluetooth modules to handle the stream.
