Agreed, detailed in my comment on this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control- center/+bug/1409325
It selects based on the literal order of audio sinks in this file: "bluetooth-client.c" in unity-control-center. By moving HSP below AudioSource/AudioSink, it selects the proper sink type. There is a problem, however, in that even when it defaults to the correct sink (A2DP), it requires me to restart the headset for audio to properly output to it. I think this is a pulseaudio thing as popping up a terminal shows it behaving properly all the way up to pulseaudio taking over, but I'm not sure why a power-cycle of the device helps. This is on my wishlist, whomever fixes this will receive a special prize. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to unity-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1590417 Title: Feature Request: Ubuntu Bluetooth switch audio output device automatically Status in unity-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Dear all, I would like to request a feature that would make it possible to automatically switch to an A2DP audio source. This feature would be very useful for headsets for which you currently have to switch to the A2DP source manually every time you connect your headset. The setting is just not being remembered.
