[Bug 1274613] Re: module-bluetooth-discover does not load on login

 

I tried Jacek Kluza's fix to no avail. Didn't work in Linux Mint 17.1
XFCE. I have a Linux Mint 17.1 Cinnamon desktop computer which uses
'cinnamon-bluetooth' applet instead of blueman which does work. I looked
at bluez and pulse stuff and the default.pa file in that machine and
compared to the one with blueman (with above problem requiring the
manual modual load workaround). At the surface, all seems pretty much
the same except the bluetooth controller cinnamon-bluetooth vs blueman.
So I believe the problem is specific to blueman. BTW, to even get the
missing module-bluetooth-discover to load from the command line, I had
to un install the blueman which I had loaded via an application manager
and install blueman from the command line.

Title:
  module-bluetooth-discover does not load on login

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The following lines appear in /etc/pulse/default.pa, which I have not
  modified:

  .ifexists module-bluetooth-discover.so
  load-module module-bluetooth-discover
  .endif

  Expected: module-bluetooth-discover is loaded on login, as configured.

  Observed: pulseaudio's module-bluetooth-discover does not load on
  login. My system does not detect and set up sinks when I connect to
  Bluetooth devices (including an A2DP speaker and a headset).

  If I issue, in a terminal window:

  $ pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover 
  24

  …then the devices are detected and sinks set up correctly.

  $ lsb_release -rd && apt-cache policy pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
