If you mean the bluetooth alias, it is done on the server side.

  # cat /var/lib/bluetooth/THE_MAC_ADDRESS_OF_YOUR_BLUETOOTH_DEVICE/settings
  [General]
  Discoverable=true
  DiscoverableTimeout=0
  Alias=蓝牙音箱 Bluetooth Speaker [DELL Optiplex 3300]

Run blueman-applet under root account also can change this alias.

After done, issue `systemctl restart bluetooth` to let new alias taken effect.

Then connect this bluetooth on the client computer. The rest test all happened
on client computer. It's annoying especially all characters in bluetooth alias
are all Chinese characters (perhaps happens on other multibytes characters
too).

I didn't/can't change the 'device.description' string of pulseaudio sink. I
expected it's identical to the 'bluez.alias' string, but it's not -- all
Chinese characters had been stripped out.
