how can I use a jolla phone as a bluetooth desktop speaker?

I am able to stream audio over bluetooth from phone to desktop just by pairing. But the other way round seems to be more complicated as 'pavucontrol' on desktop only lists headset audio gateway (HSP/HFP) and HighFidelityCapture(A2DP-source) as possible profiles. So the question is how to select a Jolla device as A2DP-sink for audio output (or HSP/HFP gateway pc->jolla-device)?

setting class=0x240414 (loudspeaker) or class=0x240428 (hi-fi device) in file /etc/bluetooth/main.conf in SFOS doesn't seem to work...
