      G'day,

      I've been struggling to get a BlueTooth speaker to connect to Retropie. It will show as PAIRED but won't CONNECT.
      I did read that, at some point, Retropie would not support BT Speakers, is this still true?

      Thanks,
      Ski

        Please don't double post - I deleted the previous post.
        As to your problem - the Bluetooth pairing configuration is mainly geared towards input devices (i.e. gamepads) so it might not work 100% with other device types. You can still pair it using the bluetoothctl command line utility (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/bluetooth, the Pairing section).
