Title:
  Multiple bluetooth audio devices break audio routing

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  When connecting multiple bluetooth audio devices the audio routing
  doesn't behave as it should.

  When multiple devices are connected which support A2DP for example we
  have to

  * Pick one which becomes the active one
  * When the active one disappears (disconnected, out-of-range) we need to pick the next one and set it as the active

  Right now the result is not constant when connecting multiple devices:

  * bluez and PA (mainly PA) try to setup all devices not respecting if one is already active
  * when disconnecting the active one the previously not-active one doesn't become active and stays unused

  Also we need to check if telepathy-ofono takes always the right audio
  card from PA to setup the audio routing for voicecalls.
