Hmmm - what priority PA is running at? I don't know really why it is a problem - I think this new combination of BT+PA is not quite ready yet, but was forced to us without alternative. I suffer in a different way by the replacement of bluez4. Anyway - what you also can try is try to fine tune PA - for example there were options regarding latency and so on. Also the signal strength - is it breaking when you are moving? and so on. I do not think you have to remove pairing to solve the problem - could be you restart BT+PA. Also try running pulseaudio with -v or -vv or -vvv to get more information and find out where is exactly your problem. I also read about LE that this is still somehow buggy, but if you say it was working for you before ... regards
