Enhancements

  • Added the Bluetooth interface, which manages the Bluetooth connection between Alexa-enabled products and peer devices. This release supports A2DP-SINK and AVRCP profiles. Note: Bluetooth is optional and is currently limited to Raspberry Pi and Linux platforms.
  • Added new Bluetooth dependencies for Linux and Raspberry Pi.
  • Device Capability Framework (DCF) renamed to Capabilities.
  • Updated the non-CBL client ID error message to be more specific.
  • Updated the sample app to enter a limited interaction mode after an unrecoverable error.

Bug Fixes

  • Issue 597 - Fixed a bug where the sample app did not respond to locale change settings.

  • Fixed issue where GStreamer 1.14 MediaPlayerTest failed on Windows.

  • Fixed an issue where a segmentation fault was triggered after unrecoverable error handling.

Known Issues

  • The ACL may encounter issues if audio attachments are received but not consumed.
  • SpeechSynthesizerState currently uses GAINING_FOCUS and LOSING_FOCUS as a workaround for handling intermediate state. These states may be removed in a future release.
  • The Alexa app doesn't always indicate when a device is successfully connected via Bluetooth.
  • Connecting a product to streaming media via Bluetooth will sometimes stop media playback within the source application. Resuming playback through the source application or toggling next/previous will correct playback.
  • When streaming silence via Bluetooth, the Alexa companion app will sometimes indicate that media content is streaming.
  • The Bluetooth agent assumes that the Bluetooth adapter is always connected to a power source. Disconnecting from a power source during operation is not yet supported.
  • On some products, interrupted Bluetooth playback may not resume if other content is locally streamed.
  • When streaming content via Bluetooth, under certain conditions playback will fail to resume and the sample app hangs on exit. This is due to a conflict between the GStreamer pipeline and the Bluetooth agent.
  • On Raspberry Pi, when streaming audio via Bluetooth, sometimes the audio stream stutters.
  • On Raspberry Pi, BlueALSA must be terminated each time the device boots. See Raspberry Pi Quick Start Guide for more information.
