Title:
Bluetooth Headset A2DP Not Working
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
This problem is regarding Bluetooth/Alsa/PulseAudio on Ubuntu 13.10
(Linux Mint 16 Petra). Per AskUbuntu threads at http://goo.gl/ITef0v,
http://goo.gl/GdylZk, and http://goo.gl/Vb3Uz4 (among other forum
threads I've found) -- I cannot get A2DP bluetooth working at all.
For starters, the only way my Bluetooth device/adapter will even show
up on my computer (so that I can "Scan" for bluetooth devices) is by
running this script http://goo.gl/wQFJ6Q. After my adapter shows up,
I can then scan and connect to my Bluetooth headset (RFMAB-2 by
RocketFish). My Bluetooth adapter is Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless
Network Adapter with built-in Bluetooth. After connecting to the
headset, I am able to see services "Input", "Headset", and "Audio". I
am able to connect to "Headset" and "Audio", however it gives me Mono
sound and does not let me change profile to A2DP (high quality) --
instead it says "Failed to change profile to A2DP". Per the earlier
linked AskUbuntu threads, I've tried changing my
`/etc/bluetooth/audio.conf` file in every possible way to try to get
this to work -- but unfortunately every time I change it and restart
bluetooth, my sound manager seems to freeze up and crash, and no
matter if I do `pulseaudio-k` or `sudo alsa force-reload` or `sudo
killall pulseaudio` or `sudo pkill pulseaudio`; the only way for my
laptop's speakers even to start working again is if I completely
restart my computer (otherwise Sound Manager doesn't display any
devices at all).
