I like the idea. It annoys me too that this isn't the default
behaviour...
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Modules/#index65h3
I'll do some testing, see if we can get it in to artful soon and xenial
later.

Title:
Please add module-switch-on-connect to default.pa
Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
This way once a user pairs & connects a bluetooth speaker device pulseaudio
will auto switch to it.
As it stands now users have to open sound settings & switch manually. It's
bad enough that auto discover & connect don't work, (can be scripted thru
bluetoothctl), no sense adding to frustration
In the ### Automatically load driver modules for Bluetooth hardware
section
.ifexists module-switch-on-connect.so
load-module module-switch-on-connect
.endif
