[Bug 875920] [NEW] Bluetooth headset can do input but not output

 

Public bug reported:

In gnome-control-center -> Sound, my bluetooth headset can be identified
under the Hardware tab.  When the headset is selected for Test Speakers
(profile Telephony Duplex HSP/HFP), no sound is detected.  When headset
is selected under Output tab, no application can play any sound on it.
By using paplay, error msg returned as "Failed to drain stream".

When the headset is selected under tab Input, it can record sound just
fine (with Input Level responding).  It can also record clear sound with
the Sound Recorder application.

The headset can function on my Android phone so the headset hardware is
intact, although it's an aged one, which is Nokia HS-11W on bluetooth
1.1 supporting HSP 1.1 & HFP 1.0.  The bluetooth adaptor is slightly
better, which is Belkin F8T012 on bluetooth 2.0.
