Well, IMHO bluetooth is one big mess in ubuntu. I'm using a BT headset for nearly 7 years now, and it has NEVER worked without some quirks.
Even this would be OK for me, but the quirks differ not only between releases but also between updates. Hence you can never be sure if the headset will work on any day... (BTW, why the hell we are STILL sitting here with the legacy Bluez 4.x stack? I guess an upgrade to Bluez 5.x could not make the state of affairs more encumbering.) The one and only good news that I've got that I SUCCESSFULLY USED MY BT HEADSET YESTERDAY (17.05.2014) on an up-to-date ubuntu 14.04/trusty. This is trick/quirk that made things work: > pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover Given that, there are a couple of ticket out here that points into this direction: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1274613 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/948613 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/946449 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283003 Title: [Bluetooth + 14.04] Bluetooth headsets are not working after last couple of updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/blueman/+bug/1283003/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
