iMX8MP HFP with Pulseaudio Routings

Wobaffet — Sun, 26 Jan 2025 14:36:22 GMT

Hello,

We are trying to utilze HFP on our custom board with i.MX8MP, TLV320AIC3100 audio codec and AW-CM358 wifi-bt module with NXP 88W8987.

We can utilize A2DP when both our custom board as sink and source. We've tested our mic which is working we are able to record audio with it.

We can utilize calls via ofono, however we can't receive or transmit any sound for HFP. Here is our card info and loopback modules for pulseaudio:

We've adjusted hci command w.r.t UM11490 like below:

# 1. Enable PCM Line Management by the Host hcitool -i hci0 cmd 0x3F 0x0070 0x01 # 2. Set SCO Voice Data Path Through PCM Interface hcitool -i hci0 cmd 0x3F 0x001D 0x01 # 3.

And below is our device tree for the pcm interface and codecs:

sound-bt-sco { compatible = "simple-audio-card"; simple-audio-card,name = "bt-sco-audio"; simple-audio-card,format = "dsp_a"; simple-audio-card,bitclock-inversion; simple-audio-card,frame-master = <&btcpu>; simple-audio-card,bitclock-master = <&btcpu>; btcpu: simple-audio-card,cpu { sound-dai = <&sai2>; dai-tdm-slot-num = <2>; dai-tdm-slot-width = <16>; }; simple-audio-card,codec { sound-dai = <&bt_sco_codec 1>; }; }; sound-tlv320aic31xx { compatible = "simple-audio-card"; simple-audio-card,name = "tlv320aic31xx-Codec"; simple-audio-card,format = "i2s"; simple-audio-card,frame-master = <&dailink_master>;//Which one is master simple-audio-card,bitclock-master = <&dailink_master>;//which one is master simple-audio-card,widgets = "Speaker", "External Speaker", "Headphone", "Headphone Jack", "Microphone", "Mic Jack"; simple-audio-card,routing = "External Speaker", "SPK", "Headphone Jack", "HPL", "Headphone Jack", "HPR", "Mic Jack", "MIC1RP"; dailink_master:simple-audio-card,cpu { sound-dai = <&sai3>; }; simple-audio-card,codec { sound-dai = <&tlv320aic3100>; system-clock-frequency = <12288000>; }; }; &sai2 { #sound-dai-cells = <0>; pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_sai2>; assigned-clocks = <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_SAI2>; assigned-clock-parents = <&clk IMX8MP_AUDIO_PLL1_OUT>; assigned-clock-rates = <12288000>; status = "okay"; }; &sai3 { #sound-dai-cells = <0>; pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_sai3>; assigned-clocks = <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_SAI3>; assigned-clock-parents = <&clk IMX8MP_AUDIO_PLL1_OUT>; assigned-clock-rates = <12288000>; clocks = <&audio_blk_ctrl IMX8MP_CLK_AUDIO_BLK_CTRL_SAI3_IPG>, <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_DUMMY>, <&audio_blk_ctrl IMX8MP_CLK_AUDIO_BLK_CTRL_SAI3_MCLK1>, <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_DUMMY>, <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_DUMMY>; clock-names = "bus", "mclk0", "mclk1", "mclk2", "mclk3"; fsl,sai-mclk-direction-output; status = "okay"; };

So we have few questions:

Are our loopback routings for HFP are correct?
Do HFP uses pcm and A2DP use uart in terms of data transmission is this correct?
Are hci commands to prepare the module for PCM transmissions are correct?
What could be the issue for our case?

Best Regards,

Hello,

Are our loopback routings for HFP are correct?

Yes, according to the documentation, those are the correct settings.

Do HFP uses pcm and A2DP use uart in terms of data transmission is this correct?

Yes, according to internal team A2DP protocol works on UART and HSP/HFP works on PCM interface.

Are hci commands to prepare the module for PCM transmissions are correct?

Yes, that is correct.

What could be the issue for our case?

Some debugging options are:

Verify that your Bluetooth headset is connected and using HFP

bluetoothctl info XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

Your routing is correct but, please confirm the default Bluetooth sink:

pactl list sinks short pactl set-default-sink <sink-name>

Best regards.
