** Description changed:

- You have recorded something with ardour or rosegarden and want to hear
- it in the train or library with your headset? Bluetooth doesn´t work
- with jack over pulseaudio. But here is a workaround. It would be nice if
- there is a easy “ubuntu like” way to do this.

- Steps to reproduce:

Title:
  bluetooth audio (a2dp) and pulse audio network support missing

Status in jackd2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  You have recorded something with ardour or rosegarden, want to hear it
  in the train or library and all you have is a bluetooth headset?

  Admittedly Bluetooth isn't about the main goals jack wants to archive: It is neither low-latency nor high quality. But many bluetooth devices supporting the a2dp protocol provide a quality that is more than sufficient for everyday's work, for some tasks latency doesn't really matter this much -
  but as long as jackd doesn't support bluetooth you might not even be able to start up your favourite application. Fixing this would be hard, though: bluetooth audio isn't supported by alsa, but only by pulseaudio.

  There exists a workaround, though:
  -	open terminal „pactl load-module module-jack-source“
  -	open pulse audio preferences from the panel
            - select input: jack source
            - select output: Bluetooth device
  open terminal „pactl load-module module-loopback”

  Attention ever use first „pactl load-module module-jack-source“ then
  plug on the bluetooth device. The other way around the module load
  fails.

  Would making loading the pulseaudio jack source module automatically
  do any harm?
