I gave it a try a couple of months back, but without much success.
L2CAP is unfortunately a bit too low-level to know anything about the
device which requested this. I think that some level of "STREAMING"
support is needed for the Bluetooth audio portion of the device.

Marcel was also interested in looking into the problem, but didn't get
to it. Let me know if you manage to get anything working without the
big hammer of disabling ERTM support for everything.
