  We make predictions for ratios of branching fractions of $\bar B^0$ decays
into $D^0$ and the scalar mesons $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$, $a_0(980)$, plus $\bar
B^0_s$ decay into $D^0$ and $\kappa(800)$. We also compare the $\pi^+ \pi^-$
production in the scalar channel with that observed in the $\rho$ channel and
make predictions for the $\bar B^0_s$ decay into $D^0$ and $K^*(892)$,
comparing the strength of this channel with that of $\kappa(800)$ production.
The work is based on results of the chiral unitary approach where the scalar
resonances are generated from the pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar interaction. Up to
an arbitrary normalization, the mass distributions and rates for decays into
the scalar resonances are predicted with no free parameters. Comparison with
experimental data is done when available.
