No, doesn't work.

First, the profile hsp-ag must be in the activated list. But then, with
that service, it doesn't work but manually started works. (There is also
no such thing as a2dp-sink but it does not harm to have it in line.)

I found other thinks in the system-services. They all have
SystemService=... but I don't know what to include here.

However, when I start it *manually*, there is the following devices:
~> bluealsa-aplay -L
bluealsa:SRV=org.bluealsa,DEV=00:16:94:17:D1:0B,PROFILE=sco
    PXC 550, trusted audio-headset, playback
    SCO (CVSD): S16_LE 1 channel 8000 Hz
bluealsa:SRV=org.bluealsa,DEV=00:16:94:17:D1:0B,PROFILE=sco
    PXC 550, trusted audio-headset, capture
    SCO (CVSD): S16_LE 1 channel 8000 Hz
bluealsa:SRV=org.bluealsa,DEV=00:16:94:17:D1:0B,PROFILE=a2dp
    PXC 550, trusted audio-headset, playback
    A2DP (SBC): S16_LE 2 channels 48000 Hz
~> bluealsa-aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Bluetooth Devices ****
hci0: 00:16:94:17:D1:0B [PXC 550], trusted audio-headset
  SCO (CVSD): S16_LE 1 channel 8000 Hz
  A2DP (SBC): S16_LE 2 channels 48000 Hz
**** List of CAPTURE Bluetooth Devices ****
hci0: 00:16:94:17:D1:0B [PXC 550], trusted audio-headset
  SCO (CVSD): S16_LE 1 channel 8000 Hz

So, there seems to be no other method as to start it as a daemon.

Regards
   Klaus
