Currently have : Raspberry Pi 3 ( running Kodi on OSMC ) and an Old stereo system ( only Aux input ) . I’d like to use the Pi as bluetooth to Aux converter for the stereo.

Any Kodi addon that allows audio output to the Aux output device?

Any advice on setup would be appreciated!

I think OSMC does this.

Not what you asked for but possibly useful; if you have apple devices and can use airplay instead of Bluetooth, github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync works really well. Even runs airplay 2 on a pi zero smoothly. Don’t know of Bluetooth otherwise sadly

Keep in mind that the DAC on the Pi is pretty awful so it might not sound great.

You might want to get a audio HAT or USB DAC.
