Dear Ubuntu dev Team DON'T MAKE "UPGRADES" WHICH CHANGE PERMISSIONS!!!
It is a permission problem with my home folder and pulseaudio. I've had 2 issues: - bluetoothd operating at 100% of one CPU core - no way to connect ANY bt device If happened after one of your "upgrades", so please test it MORE THOROUGHLY next time. Yes, I'm certain it happened after an upgrade cause I made backup 2 days prior to this extremely frustrating issue and no software other than "ubuntu upgrade" was installed in the meantime. After having researched internet twice and having already made my mind to switch to another linux distro if the solution does't come up till the end of the day - I came across this: Run the following command to fix the $HOME directory permissions for the current $USER: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME/ I used http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/problem-with-pulse-audio-834041/ and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6208727 as sources. The solution for me was to fix the permissions using the following command: sudo chown -R lionel:lionel /home/lionel and then using pavucontrol to unmute the output. The gnome indicator is still greyed but music is back, and that's a good thing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1717796 Title: Bluetoothd fills 100% CPU when bluetooth keyboard goes in idle Status in The Ubuntu Power Consumption Project: Confirmed Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When bluetooth keyboard goes in idle bluetoothd fills 100% CPU.
