I also affected by ~0.5 s delay.
Unfortunately, BYL-918 device does not have other than a2dp profile, so switching not possible, and solutions in comment #2 not applicable. 
A number of cheap adapters at online shops have BYL-918 IC.
Playing piano with 0.5 s delay makes cacophony.
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Thanks.

Title:
  Get rid of 0.5s latency when playing audio over Bluetooth with A2DP

Status in “bluez” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
  Description:	Ubuntu 13.04
  Release:	13.04

  2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center

          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3) What you expected to happen
  The audio always is sync when i listen music on my bluetooth device 
  If i listen music or have a videoconference with skype.. it receive audio perfectly without delay.

  4) What happened instead
   I experience a half a second delay when playing audio over Bluetooth with A2DP.
  This makes watching movies not possible as the sound is not synchronised with the video.

  + If i listen music, then stop about 5 minutes and then restart to listen music, it gets work bad.
  + If i get a skype videoconference, it gets too much delay.
