bluealsa -h shows:
Available BT audio codecs:

Available BT audio codecs:
a2dp-source: SBC, aptX, aptX-HD, LDAC
a2dp-sink: SBC, aptX, aptX-HD

From my understanding --enable-aptx and --enable-aptx-hd depend on https:/ /github. com/Arkq/ openaptx which states in the readme:

So we can't distribute it in Debian or depend on it.
