Whoops! Sorry about that. I can confirm that this bug exists on Ubuntu 16.10.
Random info about my laptop that could prove useful: - 64 bit AMD dual core (Turion II P540) - 8 gigs of memory - 120gb Samsung SSD * Bluetooth DONGLE. v4.0 / LE (http://amzn.to/2eanIHp). Just bought this for use with my DS4 and Plantronics BackBeat Pro headphones. I'm interested to see if the problem is restricted to the use of Bluetooth dongles (or just some dongles), Bluetooth LE devices, or a combination of the two. P.S: Why does pulseaudio suck so much? It's problems are well known (right up there with linux graphics driver problems). -- 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/1574324 Title: pulseaudio crashes when connecting to bluetooth headphones (due to ubuntu changes?)
