Ok, the mis-directed output seems to be fixed with a kernel 5.2. With the stock 5.0.0-21-generic, disconnecting BT in the Ubuntu gui does not actually disconnect immediately. Instead, the disconnect happens when BT is turned ON again in the gui!
(based on my BT headset's synthesized status-change messages, which say nothing when BT is turned OFF in the gui, but say "disconnected" when BT is turned ON in the gui). Thereafter, sound goes to the speakers even though the gui shows the BT headset is connected. I found that power-cycling the headset clears the problem, presumably because of the extraneous connection messages when the headset comes back on. These problem COMPLETELY GO AWAY with kernel 5.2 installed. Now, when I disconnect the headset in the Ubuntu gui, the headset instantly reports being disconnected, and it re-connects propertly when the headset is turned on again in the Ubuntu gui. There are some remaining gui issues where the switch in the gui snaps back by itself to "off" on the first few tries, but after a while the headset connects correctly. I will file a different bugrep about that with a video. In conclusion, it sounds like some kernel bug or api mis-match will be resolved with kernel 5.2, but that won't be shipped for while in Ubuntu. ] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838180 Title: apps use speakers when bluetooth headset is active (REGRESSION) Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Bluetooth headset stopped working after upgrading to 19.04. Worked perfectly with 18.10. Now, when a BT headset is connected the volume-control widget (seen via the speaker icon in the upper-right corner) displays a headset icon and a volume slider, but the slider has NO EFRFECT on volume and sound still comes out of the speakers. It seems like the BT headset is active as far as the volume-control GUI knows, BUT sound from apps still goes to the speakers (which were active before the BT headset connected). syslog shows: bluetoothd[1423]: connect error: Device or resource busy (16) I will attach the full syslog The problem does not occur with a wired headset. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1. Reboot Turn Bluetooth OFF (speakericon->BTicon->Turn Off) 2. Start Rhythmbox or other sound source; play something, set the volume low but audible (should be heard on speakers) 3. Turn on a Bluetoogh headset 4. Turn on Bluetooth in the computer (Speakericon->BTicon->Turn On) If necessary, do other stuff to get the BT headset connected A "headset icon" should appear next the volume slider (click speaker icon to see it) RESULTS: Sound continues to come out of speakers; nothing from BT headset Moving the volume slider has no effect EXPECTED RESULTS: Switch sound to the BT headset ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.04 Package: bluez 5.50-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.0.0-21.22-generic 5.0.15 Uname: Linux 5.0.0-21-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu27.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sat Jul 27 22:59:01 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-04-05 (479 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Beta amd64 (20180403.1) InterestingModules: rfcomm bnep btusb bluetooth MachineType: System manufacturer System Product Name ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-5.0.0-21-generic root=UUID=7c21c040-30e8-456e-bcd9-5f4bcfc2fc92 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=1 SourcePackage: bluez UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to disco on 2019-07-26 (2 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 12/01/2017 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 0605 dmi.board.asset.tag: Default string dmi.board.name: PRIME Z370-A dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. dmi.board.version: Rev X.0x dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Default string dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Default string dmi.chassis.version: Default string dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr0605:bd12/01/2017:svnSystemmanufacturer:pnSystemProductName:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKCOMPUTERINC.:rnPRIMEZ370-A:rvrRevX.0x:cvnDefaultstring:ct3:cvrDefaultstring: dmi.product.family: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.product.name: System Product Name dmi.product.sku: SKU dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: System manufacturer hciconfig: hci0: Type: Primary Bus: USB BD Address: 48:89:E7:CF:4F:FD ACL MTU: 1021:4 SCO MTU: 96:6 UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN INQUIRY RX bytes:14153 acl:154 sco:0 events:971 errors:0 TX bytes:429273 acl:643 sco:0 commands:229 errors:0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1838180/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
