I was able to get bluetooth sound out via aplayer? with a special parameter...but I would think there would be general setting in Preferences->Audio to do something like pick a different device for audio.

When I load bt...I get additional mixer panel in the gnome alsa mixer? for bluetooth...but there's no selection to force sound to this device.

Am I missing something or is this functionality still somewhat hit/miss? I am using latest Ubuntu release.

thanks in advance...

assuming you mean a2dp... iirc, in .asoundrc, it's

pcm.!default {
type a2dpd
}
