That isn't that easy as you looks like. It depends hardly on what the device says it is. Can you please follow the steps for bluetoothctl on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingBluetooth so find out what the class- of-device for this device is? This field encodes what type of device the speaker says it is. And when it says its a headset we can't do anything other than showing the headset item.
