Using a Sony WH-H900N/NM on 19.04, and the problem is as described in the original bug report.
When turning on the headset it connects but selects the HSP/HFP profile, which works but naturally has crappy sound. In the sound settings, changing from HSP/HFP to the A2DP sink does not actually do anything. The only thing that works is to disconnect the headset from the bluetooth settings and reconnect. Doing that will select the A2DP profile as the default and sound is fantastic. After doing so I can go back and forth between both profiles without any problems and everything works as expected. Also the input device/microphone is changed as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724919 Title: Bluetooth headphones only use A2DP when connected manually Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Issue with Sony MDR-1ABT Bluetooth headphones: Once paired, the headphones will be connected automatically whenever they are switched on. However when connected this way, only the HSP/HFP profile will work and trying to change to A2DP in sound settings does nothing. If the headphones are then manually disconnected and reconnected from Bluetooth settings, they will initially use HSP/HFP but then selecting A2DP in sound settings will successfully make them use A2DP.
