Hi,
I would like to use a computer as an A2DP sink (bluetooth devices
should be able to play through the computers speakers). So far I can
manually connect from the computer using dbus signals with bluez/pulse
(org.bluez.AudioSource). But what I really want is for the external
device to connect to my service. The goal is to let anyone with
bluetooth play music in our common space at the university.
What would be the most straight forward way to implement this?
Med vänliga hälsningar

I don't know which devices will connect, perhaps I could mark all
nearby devices as trusted. But I don't know how I would do that.

I have to set the bluetooth device as current source in Pulseaudio.

Why do you need this?

I've actually solved the issue myself by writing an Agent that accepts
all incoming requests, and another python script that polls 'pacmd
list-sources' every 2 seconds for new bluetooth sources. And third and
probably most important was setting "Master" option to "False" in
audio.conf.

I am also affected by this exact issue.
I also want to make my system be a 'A2DP' headset.
I managed to do so, but only when I initiate the connection from the
system, and using awkward dbus command.
When however I try to connect to it from my tablet nothing happens.
Any pointers will be welcome.
Best regards,
