Public bug reported:

I connect to a bluetooth speaker.

Observed behaviour: connection established, but sound still continues to
come from the built-in speakers and when looking at available sound
outputs in the gnome-control-center, there are no new outputs.

Expected behaviour: connection established, sound output switches to BT
speaker automatically, new sound output device visible in sound settings

Workaround: disconnect and reconnect a few times, after which everything
seems to work

The BT speaker is a actually the F900 2 Channel Amp Bluetooth Amplifier
feeding regular wired speakers behind it.
