I am trying to connect my pi5 to a bluetooth speaker. It partially connects to the speaker but not as a valid audio device. Could someone tell me what is missing or needed?
The steps that I followed:
1. Under the Bluetooth icon at the desktop-ui, click on “Add Device…”.
2. At the selection window, choose the Bluetooth device that I want to use. This step seems to work and displays the message “Pairing successful - right-click the volume icon to select an audio device”
3. Under the volume icon, choose this device name. This step fails with the message “Failed to connect to bluetooth device - Audio device not found”
