making a bluetooth speaker work

[Glenn / Lenny]

Hi,
I am running Ubuntu 16.04 on an Intel NUC PPYH.
I have been using a regular speaker on it, but I want to use an Anker pocket Bluetooth Speaker.
I got it found and configured from the Bluetooth manager, and in sound in control center, I can test it fine.
But I cannot get system sounds or Orca to speak from it, the audio only comes through connected speaker.
So how does one get it to default to the bluetooth speaker?
As mentioned, it works, as the left and right test sounds come from it, but that is the only thing I can get it to do so far.
Thanks for any assistance.
Glenn
