Hi all, I have been following this discussion for a while because the connection to my A2DP device was broken after upgrading to 14.04 with all the symptoms described above.
Following David Henningsson's suggestion in post #71, I used "apt-get purge blueman" to fully uninstall blueman from my system. After a restart, I could connect to the A2DP device with the Unity-default tool and the connection would not break down after ~1s anymore. The system did not switch the audio output to this device automatically, but after manual switch audio output was just fine. So in short: Uninstalling blueman solved my bluetooth connection problem, which confirms that it is causing this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283003 Title: [Bluetooth + 14.04] Bluetooth headsets are not working after last couple of updates Status in “blueman” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “gnome-bluetooth” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Hi, I found a bug in Ubuntu 14.04 ! I tried to pair a bluetooth stereo headset (A2DP compatible). The pairing process goes well, but after that I can't select it on the audio preferences. When I select it, it only shows the last selected item options and don't do anything. (he should switch to the headset output). I must mention that it worked very well on Ubuntu 12.04. This bug can be in the bluetooth stack or in unity-control-center or maybe pulseaudio. I actually have no idea.
