| kubuntu__ | hi | 18:23 |
| paulevans | Hello | 22:06 |
| tweak | hello friends. i have connected bluetooth headphones, but i cannot seem to get them to play anything? there seems to be no option for me to select them as a playback device? | 23:23 |
| bprompt | tweak: hmmm is the Bluetooth module running? that is, is it enabled? check in System Settings, it may just be disabled, another thing, does your machine have a bluetooh device, newer machines come with bluetooth, older ones do not | 23:37 |
| bprompt | keep in mind that even if a computer has bluetooth hardware, it can also be disabled in BIOS, if I recall well | 23:37 |
| tweak | bprompt: oh, it should be working. it's a relatively new pc. The headphones themselves do connect when bluetooth is turned on and i select them, just can't get anything to play out of them | 23:41 |
| tweak | bprompt: it's true though i havn't used bluetooth headphones with this pc before, and it could be off by default in bios, but i don't think so. i will still check. | 23:42 |
| bprompt | tweak: hmmm before rebooting, check the "output audio" device, it may be something else | 23:43 |
| tweak | bprompt: oddly i don't see the device even in alsamixer | 23:44 |
| bprompt | tweak: in System Settings > Audio, under Playback Devices, it has a dropdown list with available devices for the output | 23:44 |
| tweak | bprompt: yes it doesn't show it as an option, though it is connected | 23:47 |
| bprompt | tweak: and the bluetooth icon shows in the system tray? | 23:49 |
| bprompt | I mean, the tray will show it if it's ON or Off | 23:49 |
| tweak | bprompt: yes correct, and it shows the device connected as well | 23:49 |
| tweak | bprompt: even shows it's battery level at 98% | 23:50 |
| bprompt | tweak: if you go to System Settings > Bluetooth, can you [Add a new device]? it'll give you a list of scanned nearby bluetooth devices | 23:51 |
| bprompt | it may just not be paired yet | 23:51 |
| tweak | bprompt: yes. and then i connect it, but no playback, and it doesn't show as an output device :p | 23:53 |
| bprompt | tweak: hmmm wondering if it's the player itself | 23:54 |
| tweak | bprompt: ill check bios | 23:54 |
| bprompt | tweak: what are you playing with? mplayer? smplayer? clementine? amarok? | 23:54 |
| tweak | bprompt: thank you :) i was using firefox | 23:54 |
| bprompt | tweak: well, if it was bios, it wouldn't be on in the OS | 23:55 |
| tweak | bprompt: ah fair enough | 23:55 |
| bprompt | tweak: checked in say Amarok? or smplayer? assuming you use that, since it's what is use =) | 23:55 |
| bprompt | s/is use/I use/ | 23:56 |
