pcm.!default {
               type bluetooth
               device "00:0E:16:02:22:4D"
               profile auto
       }

about the ctl I am not sure.

If this works you can also try: "alsa: device=btheadset", but again I

This construct looks OK to me regarding the documentation in
http://alsa.opensrc.org/.asoundrc, but again this settings would be
best consulted in the alsa mailing-list.
