I am attempting to implement hands-free telephony on my board, I successfully connected my android phone to the board via bluetooth module in phone and media audio sharing mode.
The chip i use is Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174. I have pulseaudio 11.1, bluetoothctl: 5.49, and ofono 1.22 setup on my board.
I was able to play media files via bluetooth by this. But when a call connected the bluetooth speaker works properly, i.e. I can hear what is said on the other end of call via my headphone, but what I say is not heard at the other end( I guess there is some error in getting the data from mic or in transmitting data from bluetooth device). I get the following log message keeps appearing many times as soon as a call is initiated
"***Bluetooth: hci0 SCO packet for unknown connection handle 0***
***Bluetooth: hci0 sending frame failed (-27)***
***Bluetooth: hci0 sending frame failed (-27)***"
The microphone on the phone is also not functioning(after bluetooth connection is established).
Also in *hciconfig -a*
it is found as follows

The steps I followed to setup connection are as follows
$ hciconfig hci0 up
$ pactl list sources short
$ pactl list sinks short
$ bluetoothctl
agent on
scan on
scan off
pair <address>
connect<address>
My hcitool connections gives the following
$ hcitool con
Connections:
< ACL 78:C3:E9:21:1B:0B handle 2 state 1 lm MASTER AUTH ENCRYPT
No SCO connection is shown here. How can I solve this and implement proper hands-free telephony?
