I ended up upgrading to 9 as I was having issues with wifi and whatnot.
Now, Bluetooth pairs / works without issue.. but once my PC reboots, the sound profile reverts to major garbage; its flat sounding!
in /var/log/syslog (not sure if this is related?):

Last night, I added this to /etc/pulse/daemon.conf and the sound was perfect:
Code: Select all
resample-method = src-sinc-best-quality
default-sample-format = float32ne
alternate-sample-rate = 96000
then:
Code: Select all
pulseaudio --kill
service bluetooth force-reload
Went into sound manager, set the profile for the Bluetooth speaker as Hi-Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink) -- which worked last night, but today, it refuses to take that profile and when it *does* accept it, the music automatically stops on the Bluetooth speaker and starts on my internal laptop speakers (which are even worse sounding because of how tiny they are).
Assuming I fudged the config somewhere, can anyone spot my mistake?
