Hi Tim,

Thanks, that helped. I didn't think to check it because that post seemed targeted at connection drops which I do not have (the connection is stable) and I have the alsa output mode set to default.

However, now I have a quite noticeable lag even though the pi and the PC are 30 cm apart. I turned the latency down to 60ms but it's very clearly there e.g. by looking at youtube videos.

Buffer length is the only adjustment that I know of for controlling "latency".

Also still have no audio from my bluetooth Windows laptop or other devices: (Alsa output was set to Default)
Made the suggested change


Had to change:

Code:

[color=#000000][font=monospace]# bluealsaaplay.conf[/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=monospace]#AUDIODEV=_audioout.conf[/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=monospace]AUDIODEV=plughw:1,0[/font][/color]
[color=#000000][font=monospace]BUFFERTIME=500000[/font][/color]

Now it works

Made the suggested change and also  changed Also Output to direct.

[color=#000000][font=monospace]BUFFERTIME=500000[/font][/color]

Now it works

The option "ALSA output mode" was added to Bluetooth Control screen in current 8.3.7 release.

   

Set it to "Compatibility". This configures AUDIODEV to plughw.

Found the issue and solution:
The file bluealsaaplay.conf   had "AUDIODEV=_audioout.conf"
After switching Bluetootj Control ALSA output mode to compatibility, and back to default it read "_audioout"

And now all works ok.

I have a second device, that als reads _audioout.conf   

After changing it from Default, to Compatibility and back to Default, it reads  _audioout
