Bluetooth HPF profile outputs garbage

[tlg]

Hey everyone,

 

I am using a odroid c2 board with Armbien Buster image. I have a cheap bluetooth dongle and a usb sound card connected to the board. I am trying to use the board as bluetooht to aux input for my car. The board is working as expected when the a2dp profile is in use. But as soon as i place or receive a phone call i am getting garbage sound(garbage meaning a bunch of click like sound) after a while my phone drops the bluetooth connections and gives the sounds to earpiece on the phone. Also when the phone call places my syslog gets filled with "Bluetooth: hci0: SCO packet for unknown connection handle 0"

 

I am using bluez5, alsa and pulseaudio stack as for software. I tested this setup in another laptop with the same dongle and usb sound card and I am not having any issues. At this point I am really confused to if this is a harware or software issues. Hopefully someone here might help me out.

Odd. Should work...

Did a quick search fro the noise in the logs and found this: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1691795&sid=3c219e459f6aac3d70695b278e3454f6#p1691795

I have reviewed the linked issue. Not sure it matches my issues. Meanwhile i tried a different bluetooth module and it has the exact same issue.

Does anyone know if there is a forum for pulse audio support or something similar?
