1656	Bad A2DP performance	Mercury	Nytowl	"I tried setting up A2DP.

First I bonded my freerunner with my headphones using instructions from here:
http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/Bonding

Then I added an entry in asound.conf like this:
----
pcm.!default {
  type bluetooth
  device ""AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF""
}
----

Then I followed some instructions on the openmoko wiki and ran a script like this:
----
#!/usr/bin/python
import dbus
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
manager = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object('org.bluez', '/org/bluez'), 'org.bluez.Manager')
conn = manager.ActivateService('audio')
audio = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object(conn, '/org/bluez/audio'), 'org.bluez.audio.Manager')
path = audio.CreateDevice('00:15:0E:A0:63:5A')
audio.ChangeDefaultDevice(path)
sink = dbus.Interface(bus.get_object(conn, path), 'org.bluez.audio.Sink')
sink.Connect()
----

It worked, but I got extremely bad performance.  It was so choppy it was completely unlistenable.  Maybe 5% of the sound made it to my ears.

I tried it with another A2DP headset, and I got the same results.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, if there's a bug, if there's  a flaw in the freerunner, or if the chip isn't capable of the bandwidth needed for this?"	defect	closed	normal		Distro		major	fixed		fwendt SimonKagstrom montgoss				0
