  • bluez-alsa

    Bluetooth Audio ALSA Backend

  • Maybe your Rant might have made sense a decade ago not anymore, you're just forgetting you you choice one can still survive with Alsa+Jack (even the firefox supports alsa when you complied with flags) if you question about bluez has pulse dependency bluez-alsa has been running flawlessly for me years now.

  • apulse

    PulseAudio emulation for ALSA

  • I think there are a lot more than your two solutions, for example there is apulse to run pulseaudio applications on top of ALSA. Of course your bluetooth headset will probably not work well with that, you'd still need another daemon like pulseaudio or pipewire to get good results there.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
