Kubuntu 17.04
Pulseaudio 1:10.0-1ubuntu2
Bluetooth device:

 (identifies itself as "C6" by default)

The above Bluetooth speaker paired and started streaming audio perfectly
on my Kubuntu 17.04 system. But the audio quality was poor, because the
default audio profile was the low-quality HSP/HFP one. When I used
pavucontrol to switch it to the A2DP profile, it sounded perfect.

I don't know enough about Bluetooth to suggest a solution, but this is
definitely an issue. My Mac used the correct profile with no
configuration and sound was perfect with no configuration, but my Linux
system didn't, and I had to start a reddit thread and read a wiki page
to learn how to get the device to produce decent audio. This is a sub-
optimal user experience for someone like my wife or my mother, who would
would just assume that it doesn't work and blame the speaker or the OS.

I agree that A2DP is a better default. I don't know why we have higher
priority for HSP.

I was just looking at this fix and am not sure it's right...

My reading of the PulseAudio source suggests that lower values are
higher priority, as is often the convention. In that case, wasn't the
code correct before the fix?

Higher values mean higher priority.
