I've just tested the Jaunty official release (fully updated) and I got part of it working.
I was able to pair the Plantronics Bluetooth Headset effortlessly, but once paired, I do not see where I can look at my paired devices and their settings. gnome-volume-control does not show the device, pavucontrol does not show the device, skype shows the device as "headset" which only offers sound output but no capture functionality. If I set Skype to use 'headset' as the capture device it will complain "Problem with audio capture" Also I was told that even though this is one device, two classes can be activated in this device (from the computer) making it work differently (headphones vs headset). I do not see where I can set this option. I also gave Baptiste Mille-Mathias' PPA a try. I added the PPA, ran updates and pulled in the following packages: bluetooth bluez bluez-alsa bluez-cups bluez-gstreamer bluez-utils libbluetooth3 After rebooting I find that pavucontrol and gnome-volume-control still do not allow me to modify the device settings. Skype still fails when I set 'headset' as the capture device. I also tried audacity which does not show me a different device for headset capture. I am able to playback but not capture. So these problems bring up some questions: 1) How do I edit the device settings (options, volume levels etc)? 2) How do I set the device to be my session-wide or even system-wide default audio input/output device? 3) How can I get the capture to work on this device? -- [Jaunty Alpha4] Bluetooth Headset pairs but freezes the system when used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/327284 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
