Devices/Google Home Mini
If you don’t want to use bulky speakers with twisted wires behind PC you can do as I do and use Google Home Mini as Desktop audio player.
I had already tried it a long time ago but now it finally works well.
I am using Arch Linux and have recently connected TP-LINK UB500 bluetooth USB key. The procedure is also valid for Ubuntu, Mint and Windows using default system bluetooth/audio manager.
After plugging bluetooth key just select Mini from GNOME Blueooth and pair.
Then go to GNOME audio settings and select Mini as the audio output device.
All very simple.

My TP-Link UB500 Linux compatible Bluetooth 5.0 USB key is really powerful and cheap.
