I am attempting to output audio from my laptop, a Linux Mint 18 64-bit system with a Plugable USB-BT4LE bluetooth dongle. I can connect to my moode (4.2) audio player's bluetooth renderer as an A2DP sink (and moode's "Playback" screen reports the bluetooth connection from my laptop), but no audio is actually output by the moode in this configuration. I've tried test sounds, as well as selecting bluetooth as the audio output device in VLC on the Linux Mint laptop and playing a sound file.

FWIW, I just plugged an ASUS BT400 USB-Bluetooth adapter into my Linux Mint 18.3 laptop. (I had to go find and download the appropriate Broadcom firmware before the adapter would load properly.) I see the same result as you.
The LM18.3 bluetooth daemon reports it is version 5.35 5.37, well behind the version 5.49 in moOdeOS.
As a result of my attempts to play test sounds through the connection, the moOde syslog has a ton of repeated bluealsa error messages
Code:
pi@moodeLR:~ $ tail /var/log/syslog
Jul 28 22:18:07 moodeLR bluealsa[1062]: /usr/bin/bluealsa: Unsupported RTP payload type: 1
...
I see that error discussed in https://github.com/Arkq/bluez-alsa/issues/13
Looks like the first order of business would be to compile the latest bluetooth stack in LM, as Tim hints.
Regards,
Kent
