Me and my co-worker just bought a bluetooth headset (jabra) for our work. We are both using linux. I am on Ubuntu 12.10. My BT headset works just fine on both HSP w/ microphone or AD2P for music. However, it is not efficient to answer the phone. I have to switch the audio profile to HSP in order to have the microĥone working...Not very good when phone rings to go through many clicks prior to answer the phone (switching to HSP)... I, and my co-worker too are very interested in such a feature like my android phone does. (automatic switch). or at least, a shortcut on keyboard or top bar...whatever would make it easier...
One other thing; most of the BT audio adapters have 1-2 control button to start/stop and/or volume control. On android, it controls the music playing...or switch to answering the phone when it rings...Is it possible to have such feature for the default music program? like rhythmbox or clementine? If someone has a solution for me, altough it may be a work around, I'd lie to know about it. I am opened to anything...! best regards. keep up with the good work guys. -- 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/508522 Title: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: pulseaudio I'm testing a Nokia BH-905i headset (see http://www.wissel.net/blog/d6plinks/SHWL-8AZGGF ) on Ubuntu 10.10. The Bluetooth module correctly identifies the headset and the both audio profiles "HSP/ HFP Telephony duplex" and "A2DP High Fidelity Playback". For music playback only A2DP is suitable (HSP/HFP sounds like listening to music played through an old telephone). A2DP does not have an INPUT mode, so use of the headset for VoiP isn't possible. What would be needed is a separate selection to allow to select A2DP for output and HSP/HFP for input. Smartphones (a lot of them *nix based) phones do that (or they switch on the fly?). Formal structure: 1) Ubuntu 10.10 2) Pulse-Audio 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu21.1 consisting og pluseaudio, pulseaudio-esound-compat, pulseaudio-module-bluetooth, pulseaudio-module-gconf, pulseaudio-module-x11, pulseaudio-utils 3) Select high quality audio output and still use the Bluetooth microphone 4) Had to choose: either high quality audio or "telephone quality" with microphone I can change the profile without the Bluetooth connection dropping, but that's ridiculous. E.g. listening to music, a call comes in. Then I would need to switch the profile before answering. Please note that in Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android, and Windows Mobile it's done automatically.
