That's not the point. I CAN switch the profile, but it is not practically usable.
On other OS (including smartphones): A call comes in, I click Accept and take the call. On Ubuntu/Pulse: A call comes in I click Accept and then hurry to find the sound menu, the hardware tab, the profiles dropdown and change the profile -- by then the caller has dropped since she couldn't hear me. Another Hardware profile is needed that allows to use HSP/HFP *input* while using A2DP output.
