I have gotten Bluetooth A2DP working and have head the audio come out of my speakers for testing purposes. I would like to actually send the audio to PiFmRds which I understand is much more complicated as it requires the audio to be piped in while bluealsa-aplay can't natively do that. I have tried the following at different times:
pw-cat --target="<source_name>" --record --file=- > audio_output.raw
with <source_name> being either the name from pw-cli list-objects | grep -B 2 'bluez' for my phone's pairing or the address for sudo modprobe snd-aloop. I am getting one of, no audio on the FM broadcast, what might be digital feedback from mixing up in and out addresses while trying new methods or "Error: could not open stdin for audio input." which I think is from PiFmRds.
I am using a Pi 2 with a USB Bluetooth adapter.
