Although I work with Audio, I have no real clue on how audio works on Linux, despite using it since Kernel 0.97...

What I have: I've got a machine with normal onboard audio IOs and a BT dongle. It is running Ubuntu Server.

What I want: I want it to take the analog signal from LineIn and forward this to a BT speaker linked to the BT dongle. This should preferably run like a service, so it autostarts when booting the server.

Any idea where to start, which programs and systems to look for?

I can tell you I did this with mint really easily like 10 years ago. So there is hope...

Do you remember any tools you used back then? Maybe they are still around. Although, with Linux, I would not be surprized if I could just use "dd" to copy data from LineIn to BT Audio somehow.
