[Bug 1363083] [NEW] Music playback does not re-route audio when Bluetooth speaker connected/disconnected

 

Public bug reported:

krillin ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed build 4.
bluez 4.101-0ubuntu19 armhf

SUMMARY:
When a Bluetooth speaker is connected/disconnected to the krillin, the music playback route does not automatically update to accomodate this. The music app must be re-started for the new configuration to work.

STEPS:
1) Pair and connect the Bluetooth speaker (BQ Altavoz Bluetooth Strauss)
2) Start music playback
3) Disconnect the Bluetooth speaker on krillin from the Bluetooth settings

EXPECTED RESULT:
The music should play back through the Bluetooth speaker until it is disconnected. When the speaker is disconnected it should revert to using the krillin loud speaker.

ACTUAL RESULT:
The music plays back through the Bluetooth speaker until it is disconnected. When the speaker is disconnected, there is no music heard from the krillin. The music app is still playing the track as the progress bar is still updating, but there is no sound.

When the music app is re-started, music will play through the krillin
loud speaker.

NOTES:
The same problem is observed for the opposite situation where a Bluetooth speaker is connected to the device when it is already playing music through the krillin loud speaker. The Bluetooth speaker will only be used once the music app is restarted.
