Title:
  Bluetooth does not forward metadata to slave devices.

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Tested using the bluetooth stereo in a Mitsubishi FUSO Rosa and a Ford
  Territory (both less than three years old, Australian models), using a
  bluetooth-stereo (A2DP) connection.

  With other (Android) devices, the Mitsubishi FUSO Rosa displays
  complete metadata, whilst the Ford Territory displays only basic
  metadata (artist/group and track information).

  bq Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Edition:
  * OS build number: OTA-9
  * Ubuntu Image part: 20160123.1
  * Ubuntu build description: Ubuntu 15.04 - armhf (20160123-115651)
  * Device Image part: 20160108-efc96d8
  * Device build description: VEGETA01A-S23A_BQ_L100EN_2009_160123
  * Customization Image part: 20160111-926-36--vivid

  Reproduce:
  - "Pair" Ubuntu mobile device with another device, which has a display and is capable of displaying metadata (artist/group, track, album and/or coverart information) from bluetooth audio input.
  - Play music on Ubuntu mobile device.

  Result:
  Music plays through slave device, however no metadata is displayed.

  Expectation:
  To be able to see artist/group, track, album and/or coverart information whilst listening to music over a bluetooth connection.
