Hi there and thanks for trying out balenaSound!

Your issue looks a lot like what some other folks reported in [No sound when connecting through bluetooth](https://forums.balena.io/t/no-sound-when-connecting-through-bluetooth/197236/15). Are you able to try connecting your Pi via ethernet rather than wifi to rule out interference? Alternatively, if you have an external Bluetooth dongle you can try using that.

Please let us know if you are able to try either of those!
