Steve, Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 13.04 (raring) reached end-of-life on January 27, 2014.
See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases Please upgrade to the latest version and re-test. David and others: Please log a new bug for any issues you encounter. ** Changed in: bluez (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bluez in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1169776 Title: Bluetooth audio fails on 64-bit architecture Status in bluez package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: * Headset works fine on 32-bit machines under Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10 (Samsung NC-20, Dell D420) * Same headset pairs, but fails to do audio on a 64-bit machine, Ubuntu 32-bit or 64-bit 12.10 or 64-bit 13.04 (Lenovo S206 with AMD E1-1200) AGAIN: it fails on 64-bit *machines* regardless of the Ubuntu version, and works on 32-bit machines. * At first sometimes I see the hardware in the Sound Settings. but only hear some tinny, scratchy sounds briefly. Then the device disappears from the Sound Settings. Re-starting bluetooth has no effect. On a working system, see syslog lines like bluetoothd[825]: /org/bluez/825/hci0/dev_<bluetooth-id>: fd(32) ready ... bluetoothd[825]: Audio connection got disconnected But on the non-working systems, I don't see such bluetooth lines at all (I presume due to the logging level) Anyway, no *errors* are showing, after pairing with the headset. The audio just doesn't work. Please advise how to debug. (Of course I don't know if the blame lies with the Bluetooth software or with PulseAudio, and of course I don't care.) Please fix this soon! I have been using this on a daily basis, and need to move to a newer machine.
