** Description changed:

  You have recorded something with ardour or rosegarden, want to hear it
  in the train or library and all you have is a bluetooth headset?
  
  Admittedly Bluetooth isn't about the main goals jack wants to archive: It is 
neither low-latency nor high quality. But many bluetooth devices supporting the 
a2dp protocol provide a quality that is more than sufficient for everyday's 
work, for some tasks latency doesn't really matter this much -
  but as long as jackd doesn't support bluetooth you might not even be able to 
start up your favourite application. Fixing this would be hard, though: 
bluetooth audio isn't supported by alsa, but only by pulseaudio.
  
- There was a workaround:
+ There exists a workaround, though:
  -     open terminal „pactl load-module module-jack-source“
  -     open pulse audio preferences from the panel
            - select input: jack source
            - select output: Bluetooth device
  open terminal „pactl load-module module-loopback”
  
  Attention ever use first „pactl load-module module-jack-source“ then
  plug on the bluetooth device. The other way around the module load
  fails.
  
- But the workaround involved command-line work every time it was used
- (e.G. after suspending the laptop or temporarily loosing connection) and
- one of the needed modules seems to have disappeared from the package
- repository.
+ Would making loading the pulseaudio jack source module automatically do
+ any harm?
