Bug description:
[Impact]
pulseaudio daemon crashes, interrupting sound output/input.
[Test Case]
Theoretical test case (crash does not happen for all users):
1. Get a Bluetooth audio device capable of multiple profiles (e.g. high
fidelity A2DP and the lower quality headset profiles).
2. Pair it with your machine and select the device in sound settings.
3. Turn the Bluetooth audio device off and on again, making sure it is
set to active if not automatically so.
4. Select the device in sound settings.
5. Check that that pulseaudio process is still running, with a start
time older than when you began this test case.
[Regression Potential]
Low. This SRU affects the pulseaudio daemon only so the worst case would
be loss of sound output/input. The same patches have been released to
17.10 for a month already and zero regressions of the crashes have
occurred worldwide since then.
[Other Info]
Debdiff patch is attached to the most prolific bug 1539209.
