The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

Does pMusic supports bluetooth devices?

I tried to to pMusic on bluetooth via bluez-alsa it still streamed to speaker while gnome-mplayer was able to stream sound on my bluetooth headset.

Know nothing about Bluetooth, so just guessing.

In preferences->playback
See if anything changed for sound card helps.
Hover over sound card selection input and a info message will pop up.

@mistfire
I couldn't make it work through pmusic.
The only way I could come up with, add the stations to favorites in pmusic then manually copy them from /root/.pmusic/favorites and add them to smplayer open / radio /edit.
Tricky is to find out how much of the "http...." you actually need to make it work. Sometimes till .mp3 or .mp3.pls or mp3_128 or just a port number and so on.
Smplayer has no problem connecting to bluetooth.
