Bumping this due to some random issues seen with PulseAudio and perhaps ALSA allegedly due to the PA scriptto properly name the onboard USB names.  @chwe, if you would so kindly take the last few posts from the Tinker Board Bluetooth thread involving audio and stuff them in here?

Well, the channel is showing up in the sink devices for PA, but I'm not getting anything out via my monitor...  I'll do some more checking

let me build it and we'll see.  ;-)

Tony you managed to fix the problem of audio by hdmi? I made the modofication in raw before the compilation but it seems that I miss codecs

Anything in-tree, I don't see a problem.
 
Yep. 
 
I have the service working on my end, I consolidated everything down a bit to reduce the number of working parts/etc, one thing that stuck out was the script @Jyu Ho pasted in had an else block which meant if the gpio was not initialized it would initialize it and then not attempt to reset/communicate, I was confused for a bit when I'd boot and have the GPIO ready but no bt.... 
 
@Igor, if this works as expected on every boot I'm going to try it on 4.4 and potentially avoid using the Rockchip rfkill altogether, it bypasses any unexpected software updates/"upgrades" that might happen, especially since the rtl8723bs isn't even technically supported so it is treated as "generic bt" [Done]
 
I'm going to do some cleanup and get this committed to next/dev.  I also apparently need to fix hdmi on dev, but Myy already took care of that. 
 
Updated first post to reflect status, stuck the historical info into a spoiler.
