I’ll remove the speaker and add it again

As it turns out, that was a bad idea. Now the Pi does not see the speaker.

@Mykle1 Sorry to hear it’s not working.
When you reboot try it without running the start-pulseaudio-x11 command. If that doesn’t work, I’m lost.
Iirc, when I set mine up, I paired the speaker, then did the right click on the speaker icon to change it to the bluetooth speaker.

I can’t try anything right now. The Pi doesn’t see the speaker since I removed it. I can’t add it because it doesn’t appear in the Add Device window

@Mykle1 try the command line instead of the gui to pair your speaker.
Run bluetoothctl in terminal.
Then type:
power on
Default-agent
Agent on
Scan on
then see if bluetoothct sees the speaker.

Seemed like it pair, but then says COnnected: no

@Mykle1 Can you try the right click on the speaker icon now to see if it works?

@d3r

The speaker was there but I got this error when I clicked on it

FatalError: Unable to connect to PulseAudio: OK

Mykle1

Getting something to drink, in lieu of a sedative.

d3r

@Mykle1 Getting close.
Run pulseaudio --start then try the speaker thing again.
