Adgj533 Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 Hey all i have been using echo as bluetooth speaker to play music from my pc, i was using a usb dongle but few days ago it stopped working so i thought the dongle was at fault and ordered another one. turns out same problem, the Problem is that there is no audio coming out of echo. Windows media player shows song is playing and echo is connected and stuff. still no sound . I tried setting it as default, reinstalling drivers etc still no use please help Quote
stusviews Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 AFAIK, the Amazon Echo does not include a Bluetooth receiver, only a transmitter. You can output to a Bluetooth speaker, but you can't send a Bluetooth signal to the Echo. This thread may help. Quote
Jimbo.Automates Posted December 26, 2016 Posted December 26, 2016 The echo does have Bluetooth receiver, I have streamed to it from my phone. But this is really a forum about using the Amazon Echo with the ISY, which I don't think the OP has, so should probably go to Amazon for help. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk Quote

This thread may help.When I had an Echo, I used to connect my phone's Bluetooth to it and use it as a speaker... Quote

stusviews Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 A search indicates that the Echo and 2nd generation Echo Dot does, in fact, have Bluetooth audio input capability. Quote
