This applies to at least BCM20702 and BCM43142. Although some of the devices have an OTPROM that contains required firmware, but it is found that these devices would not have HFP/HSP support unless a upgraded firmware is loaded via patchram uploader. This tool requires hci device to do the firmware loading, but this may cause some race condition between patchram tool and bluetoothd or something that also works on hci interface. Also it needs some hooks to make firmware loads after bootup, s3, s4, rfkill, and device hotplug events. Implement this loader in kernel module would make things more easier.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1199059] Re: blueman and pulse's module-bluetooth-discover (A2DP audio sink devices failed to work with bluetoothd : Unable to select SEP in system log.)
I am using a fresh installed Xubuntu 14.04 LTS, after running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for quite a while on the same laptop Lenovo R500. Everything worked great after installation, until I came to blueman... Connecting to two different audio-devices( headset nokia 905i+, bluetooth-speaker DOSS Alonso ) that I own was buggy. To be more specific: connecting and pairing worked, but there was no sink for pulseaudio available and A2DP setting was not possible. I followed the discussion: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1283003. And here I could finally find the solution: it seemed that blueman unloads module-bluetooth-discover on startup. David Henningsson (diwic) found the code in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1283003/comments/52 he did a quick ppa on that, which unfortunately didn't work https://launchpad.net/~diwic/+archive/bluemantest now what? since I liked the idea, I hacked directly in to that modul /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blueman/plugins/applet/PulseAudio.py line: 229 if v[name] == module-bluetooth-discoverX: the 'X' is my add-on, since I have no idea about python ;) reboot now it works! :) connected my Headset, could set the A2DP and listen to my music right now. maybe somebody can use this information to build a real fix. looking forward to that -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1199059 Title: blueman and pulse's module-bluetooth-discover (A2DP audio sink devices failed to work with bluetoothd : Unable to select SEP in system log.)
