HSP-only headsets (like Motorola H300, H700) do not output sound, often cause pulseaudio to hang, and eventually kick out this log message: #v+ E: [pulseaudio] bluetooth-util.c: Failed to acquire transport fd: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. E: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to load module "module-bluetooth-device" (argument: "address="00:16:8F:D1:95:36" path="/org/bluez/31385/hci0/dev_00_16_8F_D1_95_36""): initialization failed. #v- After that, the audio sink shows up in pavucontrol, but when selected I cannot play sound through it. Many apps like mplayer will hang, presumably because pulseaudio's input buffer is full.
