Bluetooth speakers showing up as input

Post by cnuzzi »

I am running a fresh install of Mint 18.3 Cinnamon, and my bluetooth speaker (an Amazon Echo) was working perfectly. I had an issue with interference, so I stopped bluetooth and restarted it. Now, the speaker shows up as input not output, and sound from it plays over my computer speaker. It won't connect as a sink. When I try, I get:

Connection Failed: blueman.bluez.errors.DBusFailedError: Input/output error

I have Blueman installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
