Default Streaming music from phone to PC

I want to stream music from my Note 4 such as Deezer via bluetooth to my PC to use the speakers that are connected.

For some reason it won't let me do it.

For example in the following guide all that is done on my pc/phone but when I search services for my phone under devices I don't get any option to play music, only send a file or sync PIM.

Device drivers for the Note 4 are installed via Kies so that's not the issue. It's not allowing any A2DB connectivity for some reason giving the option to play music.

I want to use Deezer via my phone and not the desktop app as I much prefer the phone version.

Can't you point the pc at the tablet via wifi and use vlc for example, add your tablet the directory and play your music.

It's not a music directory, it's music apps such as Deezer.

Why not just plug a 3.5mm lead from your phone to your pc and listen that way as it will save any crap and if your trying to do it to a pc you must be next to while your using it or you would stream to a proper system?

Well I don't have a 3.5mm lead and streaming via bluetooth should be possible so I would like to get it working if I can.
