Partially confirmed, but...
* Only confirmed in Totem. VLC did automatically switch back to
bluetooth for me (so its menu says). Except I then lost all sound. One
possibly related observation is that VLC provides a menu for you to
select the current audio device. I don't think Totem does or can
(because GStreamer is too generalised to expose devices by name?).
* PulseAudio is designed to allow different applications to use
different audio devices of their choosing. So choosing to ignore newly
added devices may in fact be an application bug/feature. The recent
fixes to PulseAudio mostly relate to default devices (that which is used
at application startup, not switched to during application execution).
** Summary changed:
- output doesn't switch automatically to BT speaker when available
+ Audio doesn't switch automatically to BT speaker when hotplugged after
application playback started
