- TL;DR Summary
- After an update & upgrade, the Pi is still able to pair with bluetooth audio devices BUT now the volume button and slider are disabled. No audio.
Raspberry Pi 3 with Raspberry OS...
Recently did apt-get update and upgrade. It did an upgrade of the desktop after asking for permission to replace the file piwiz.desktop. It then ran a wizard to redo various options and preferences, including WiFi and password (which I had set up initially on first running the OS).
Now I can't use bluetooth audio. I can pair a speaker or headphone as before, but the speaker icon in the lower right is greyed out. I can right click and select my device from the list of audio devices. It goes through without error. But the speaker icon is still greyed out.
If I click on the speaker icon it shows the "mute" box checked and volume at zero, which I can't change. If I hover over the speaker icon it pops up "no volume control on this device".
I found this command on the internet that is supposed to give some clues:
Any suggestions on fixing this?
