Use XBMC as a bluetooth A2DP device. - Mr. Cookie - 2012-05-19
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas if it's possible to use a XBMC Live install as a bluetooth wireless headset. The idea is that I pair my phone with my media center and send the audio from my phone through my home audio system.
All my searches point to using headphones as the audio device with xbmc. I'm looking for the other way around.

You may start here:

which has the following links

Requires ALSA, so it may be a bit tricky to fit into XBMC.

I am interested in that also. Those URLs seem to be non-working, but googling "Project Bluez Handsfree" gives some that seem to be relevant links regarding this.
This one seems promising: http://nohands.sourceforge.net/index.html
