I have been using musicbox for a while and love it, the problem is connecting to speakers around my house. I have been playing with connecting to Bluetooth speakers with the pi and got it working with bluez.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to get music box to stream music to the dongle as the output?

A quick search shows this, did you try it? [Send audio from Musicbox through bluetooth](https://discourse.mopidy.com/t/send-audio-from-musicbox-through-bluetooth/168/5)

“You probably have to disable audio autodetection in /opt/musicbox/startup.sh because it overwrites /etc/asound.conf”

I’m not sure what to change here to stop it?
