Bug ID: 491813
Summary: Reconnecting paired headset does not allow to pick
"High Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink)"
Classification: Plasma
Product: Bluedevil
Version: unspecified
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: daemon
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: kuder...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I connect my headset (Sony WH-1000XM3) it now automatically uses the
"Handsfree Head Unit (HFP)" profile and there is no option to pick the "High
Fidelity Playback (A2DP Sink)" profile. The only other option is "Off". This
was not the case before I updated my laptop (I update everything every ~7
days). Before it always automatically picked the "High Fidelity Playback (A2DP
Sink)" profile after connecting my headset. My workaround is forgetting the
headset in paired Bluetooth devices, pairing it again, going to "Sound"
settings, and switching the profile from "HFP" to "A2DP Sink". But this process
is slow and quite irritating.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Turn on headset
2. Wait for it to auto-connect
3. Go to "Sound" settings
4. Check available profiles
OBSERVED RESULT
1. See and hear that "HFP" was picked
2. Be unable to switch to "A2DP Sink" manually (see "available: no" in "AUDIO
INFO AFTER RECONNECTING" below)
EXPECTED RESULT
Use the "A2DP Sink" profile (or the last previously used) after the headset has
auto-connected via Bluetooth.

I also noticed that it now takes ~10 seconds longer to connect whereas before
it was almost instantaneous after I turned the headset on. But I'm not sure if
this is related somehow.
No configuration was changed. I use my headset daily either for entertainment
or for calls, but even then I use a different mic than the one inside my
headset. It worked before updates but stopped after updates. Sadly I don't know
the exact versions of related packages/libraries/etc.
This happens every time.
I wanted to try an external Bluetooth dongle after I disabled the internal
Bluetooth device in UEFI but that has another problem (error
br-connection-create-socket right after connecting the headset).
Lastly, I tried my girlfriend's headset (newer Sony WH-1000XM4) and they don't
have this problem and work as expected.
