Homebrew Bluetooth Headphones on Nintendo Switch.

[GerBrew]

Is there a way to use Bluetooth headphones on the Nintendo Switch without any extra Hardware? Cathery on GitHub works already on a way to get Bluetooth Controller support with sys-con. So I guess its not impossible to get Bluetooth Headphones connected to the Nintendo Switch with a CFW. Is there already a way to get this, Do we have to wait or is it simply not possible?

There's nothing that currently exists that will allow you to do that. In theory I suppose it's possible, since you can get bluetooth audio working with Linux, Android and Lakka on Switch. But I don't think anybody has accomplished this in Horizon. Would be awesome though, should be a baked-in feature in my opinion but I guess Nintendo didn't want bluetooth audio interfering with up to 8 controllers simultaneously connected.

in the switch hardware itself no but i bet sys-con is working on a way to use the Bluetooth controller in the 3rd party controller itself

Not yet....

PS4 gold headsets work with the dongle.... but, I’m told, the microphone doesn’t work... Nintendo nerfed it afaik and unless devs work around it only Fortnite, Smite, Paladins, and Friday the 13th will work.

The review I did for the HomeSpot 5.0 adaptor highlights similar issues with BT audio: https://gbatemp.net/review/homespot-bluetooth-5-0-audio-transmitter.1179/
