Description H.H. 2017-12-03 19:38:29 UTC

I connected my android phone via bluetooth to my laptop, which is connected to good speakers. I have multiple soundcards.

In plasma volume control, the phone only is displayed as a recording device. So I cannot route it to a special sound card.

In pavucontrol it is displayed as a loopback playback device, for which I can select the right sound card. Something like that should also work in kde.

Since I use Pipewire in the meantime behaviour changed, and it works better. But the phone device is only shown as "Wireplumber [export]" instead of  "Wireplumber [export] : my phone model" like in pavucontrol.
