I believe this was fixed in PulseAudio 10 (Ubuntu 17.04 and later): https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Notes/10.0/
We are working on backporting some related features to 16.04. I'm not sure if this is one included in the patchset but I think it might be. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist => High ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508522 Title: Mic is not available with A2DP Bluetooth profile To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/508522/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
