    Current situation :

    • Raspberry pi 3
    • raspbx-06-03-2016 (latest image)
    • chan_mobile working perfect with Belkin F8T017 USB Bluetooth stick and iPhone5

    What i want :

    • chan_mobile with Raspberry builtin bluetooth

    Problem :

    • With builtin Bluetooth everything works except there is no sound. Incoming and outgoing calls work, CID presentation works, everything works except no sound.

    I already spent multiple hours searching but without luck so far.
    Anyone here have this working ? Where do i look to debug this ? Looks like a bluetooth problem.

    Thanks in advance.

    I had the exact same problem and spent weeks trying to find the source. Apparently there is an issue with Bluez5 working with certain Broadcom based Bluetooth devices. After not having luck with SCO audio on Pi3 I also tried a USB stick BT adapter with no luck. Upon examination I learned my USB BT adapter was also based on a Broadcom chip. I tried another adpater based on Cambridge Systems and SCO audio worked perfectly first time and every time. This was a difficult problem to pin down because of the nearly total lack of documentation between Chan_mobile->Bluez5->Pulsaudio->Ofono, all of which are required to make this hack work. Now I am trying to get SMS to work and fighting the lack of information again ... Good luck Peter
