It is possible to setup alsa using bluetooth:
Add to ~/.asoundrc (if it doesn't exist just create it)
pcm.bluetooth {
type bluetooth
device "11:22:33:44:55:66"
}
(replace 11:22:33:44:55:66 with the actual
address of the bluetooth headset). Sound can now be directed to the
headset via the alsa device "bluetooth", e.g.:
ogg123 -d alsa -o dev:bluetooth
Some GUI application doesn't show that device in their configuration
dialogue. vlc is an example of this behaviour, but it is possible to
make vlc use it by manually editing the configuration file.
You can also make the bluetooth device the standard device by
pcm.!default {
type bluetooth
device "11:22:33:44:55:66"
}
It is a long time since I made that setup, so I can't say if it will
work out of the box. But it is possible to avoid pulseaudio. I hope it
will help.
