SOLVED! At least for my A2DP audio sink (Nokia AD-42W).
1. Set up device in pairing-mode 2. "sudo sdptool browse" and then enter the bluetooth PIN code into the popup window. OR "sudo hcitool scan" to get the device id xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx "sudo sdptool search --bdaddr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx y" where y is your service type (in my case y=A2SNK). Then enter the bluetooth PIN code into the popup window. Finished. For A2DP devices (Bluetooth Audio Devices): Create ~/.asoundrc: pcm.bluetooth { type bluetooth device xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx profile auto } If you are getting distorted sound output (e.g. when using a bluetooth mouse) then uncomment last three lines in /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf: [A2DP] SBCSources=1 MPEG12Sources=0 -- bluetooth-wizard unable to pair headset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284994 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
