    Hello Seltonu, and welcome to Ask Ubuntu. In order to increase that chances that somebody gives a good answer to your question, the first thing to do is ask a question; you should edit your post and actually include a question. You should also clarify the context: who gives that error message? When does it give that error message? What are you doing in order to make that error message appear? Is the error message unexpected?

Since I can not mark this as a duplicate:



The accepted answer to the linked question added the answer to this "question" as well. The linked github project https://github.com/EHfive/pulseaudio-modules-bt adds support to pulseaudio for aac, aptx, aptx hd and ldac codecs.



Due to licensing issues, it can not be merged upstream. However, an Ubuntu ppa is supplied:
https://github.com/EHfive/pulseaudio-modules-bt/wiki/Packages#ubuntu-1804-1810-1904



For future reference:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eh5/pulseaudio-a2dp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libavcodec58 libldac pulseaudio-modules-bt


for installation.



Restart pulseaudio:



pulseaudio -k
pulseaudio --start


I then had to reconnect my headphones (Sennheiser HD 4.50 BTNC), and set them as audio sink. In the sound settings, AptX was already displayed. Selecting AAC/AptXHD/LDAC didn't change what was used (due to my headphones only supporting AptX).
To check on the shell:



pactl list sources | grep a2dp_codec


The above has no output when used without the custom modules!



(I just did this on Ubuntu 19.04)
