@David Henningsson Hi David, Have installed the new bluemantest from the ppa and for me it works. Thank you.
It works in the same way that editing the Pulseaudio.py file worked as specified by Hartmut. I.e. there are quirks (specified in post #81) to navigate to actually get the sound routed to the headphones, it's not simply a case of connecting the headphones and everything else is seamless. In particular, i) even after pairing/trusting the headphones in blueman I couldn't select the A2DP profile (pulseaudio[1926]: [pulseaudio] module-bluetooth-device.c: Profile not connected, refused to switch profile to a2dp; pulseaudio[1926]: [pulseaudio] module-bluetooth-device.c: Default profile not connected, selecting off profile) until I ran Setup for the headset in blueman ii) had to manually select the headset in Sound Settings iii) selecting the headset (Output tab) in Sound Settings caused A2DP to switch Off iv) switching A2DP back on in blueman showed A2DP assigned in Sound Settings (Output tab) UNTIL I went into the Input tab to select the headphones there and then A2DP dropped out in the Output tab. Selecting A2DP after the headset was selected in both Output and Input tabs allowed things to work as required. @Kiori Indeed. In my case the irony is that without blueman (which I originally didn't have installed) I couldn't get the headset to work at all. So despite blueman having problems of its own it has actually helped to resolve my problem to the extent where I can actually use the headset albeit by going around the houses. -- 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 - Bluetooth Manager: Confirmed 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.
