Abstract
For example, a first Bluetooth (BT) device may be configured to operate in a role of a peripheral device over a BT link between the first BT device and a second BT device; and to initiate a role switch to switch the first BT device from the role of the peripheral device to a role of a central device over the BT link between the first BT device and the second BT device, based on a determination that the BT link between the first BT device and the second BT device is to be operated as an audio link to communicate audio data between the first BT device, as an audio source, and the second BT device, as an audio sink.
