bluetooth headset works with mpd/mpc

[Sllyth]

i just followed the wiki "bluetooth headset", then it has already working.

i usually play music by mpd/mpc. but until now i don't know how to configure mpd/mpc to let them work with my bluetooth headset.

Anyone here has any ideas?

I use only Pulseaudio for Bluetooth headsets support. When connected a new audio device appear in Pavucontrol. In the Configuration tab the headsets must me the only active audio device to force audio output to go to your headsets.

You must set /etc/asound.conf or $HOME/.asoundrc to redirect the Alsa requests by audio applications to Pulseaudio. Than you can set per application configuration to use Pulseaudio or Alsa as output and it should always go to your headsets.
