Finally solved,
It is indeed a gdm3 bug, the #805414 seems a good candidate, I modified /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11 attached ( needed only if using gdm3) and modified /etc/pulse/default.pa (same) I also prevented pulseaudio to load under gdm3 according to this: https://wiki.debia n.org/BluetoothUser/a2dp The odd thing is that without all of this my other headphones where connecting a2dp straight.

I switched harddrives from machines, it worked for a bit then refused to switch to a2dp again :/ Continuing to investigate, Grégory Bahde Doctorant en Géographie UJM / ENSSIB Financé par la Région RA dans le cadre de l'ARC 5 Enseignant UE5 Edition Numérique @ ENSSIB 0619157341 ----- Mail original ----- De: "gregory bahde" <gregory.ba...@laposte.net> À: "Debian Bug Tracking System" <sub...@bugs.debian.org> Envoyé: Lundi 29 Mai 2017 09:46:51 Objet: Bug#863603: bluez: a2dp not working Package: bluez Version: 5.43-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? I acquired a JBL Go bluetooth speaker. It works only in headsetmode on one of my computers (both running stetch, the other one is running this speaker wih a2dp fine) I tried different dongles (different chips) and they all don't allow me to use a2dp, only HSP with this speaker. I own another bluetooth device and it connects with a2dp fine. journalctl gives me this: mai 29 09:42:11 GoonieB gnome-settings-[1856]: Unable to get default sink mai 29 09:42:11 GoonieB gnome-settings-[1856]: gvc_mixer_card_get_index: assertion 'GVC_IS_MIXER_CARD (card)' failed mai 29 09:42:11 GoonieB gnome-settings-[1856]: gvc_mixer_card_get_index: assertion 'GVC_IS_MIXER_CARD (card)' failed mai 29 09:42:11 GoonieB gnome-shell[1727]: gvc_mixer_card_get_index: assertion 'GVC_IS_MIXER_CARD (card)' failed mai 29 09:42:11 GoonieB gnome-shell[1727]: gvc_mixer_card_get_index: assertion 'GVC_IS_MIXER_CARD (card)' failed AND THEN kernel: Bluetooth: hci0 SCO packet for unknown connection handle 71 mai 29 09:42:16 GoonieB gnome-control-c[6529]: Device did not have an appropriate card mai 29 09:42:16 GoonieB gnome-control-c[6529]: gvc_mixer_card_get_index: assertion 'GVC_IS_MIXER_CARD (card)' failed mai 29 09:42:21 GoonieB pulseaudio[2950]: [pulseaudio] module-bluez5-device.c: Refused to switch profile to a2dp_sink: Not connected * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
