As a follow-up to my previous post, I followed Jens's instructions to add the extra codecs. Then I paired and connected to my Sennheiser 4.50BT headphones (which contain SBC and aptX codecs)
Yay. The "higher" quality aptX codec was selected during the negotiation rather than the SBC.
However, moOde seems to think it's connected to a Bluetooth source rather than sink because the webUI is overlaid with "Bluetooth Active: HD 4.50BTNC" and the Bluetooth control button?!? ETA: self-induced error. BT's working fine.
