[Bug 1283003] Re: [Bluetooth + 14.04] Bluetooth headsets are not working after last couple of updates

 

I tried everything on this list up to comment #59 then it started
working!

Bluetooth Headset: BT-BSH10 http://amzn.com/B0059NF3PU 
Laptop: ASUS X201E 11.6" Celeron 4GB/320GB Ubuntu Laptop http://amzn.com/B00B1N92ZY
OS: Ubuntu 14.04 with all updates as of today.

On comment #29 I had to add the etc/bluetooth/audio.conf file, it did
not exist.

I did this by going to:

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/174137125/audio.conf

Then use CRTL+A to highlight the entire file. Then CRTL+C to copy it.

Open the Terminal and type the command:

sudo gedit

Then paste the file in gedit with CRTL+V.

I made the same changes as comment # 29 but also uncommented:

Master=true

and

AutoConnect=true

Then use File->Save As from the menu to place it in etc/bluetooth directory. 
It was necessary to use the arrow next to Usr to move up to the Home directory and then click it again when it changes to a hard drive icon. The etc directory will be visable now, click on it and then bluetooth, make the title audio.conf and click save.

After a reboot it started woking at comment #59 with the Terminal
command:

pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover

It responds with:
24

Bluetooth headset with buit-in microphone both work now. 
I can see the Bluetooth headset in the PulseAudio Volume Control.
The Sound app now lists the Headset under the Input and Output tabs.

Thanks.

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I found a bug in Ubuntu 14.04 !

  I tried to pair a bluetooth stereo headset (A2DP compatible). The
  pairing process goes well, but after that I can't select it on the
  audio preferences.

  When I select it, it only shows the last selected item options and don't do anything. (he should switch to the headset output).
  I must mention that it worked very well on Ubuntu 12.04.

  This bug can be in the bluetooth stack or in unity-control-center or
  maybe pulseaudio. I actually have no idea.
