Description
I have the following bluetooth headset: Bose AE2 SoundLink which supports HSP and A2DP profiles. I can switch between those profiles manually and things seem to be working as expected.
Unfortunately automatic switch between profiles doesn't seem to work. I have 'module-bluetooth-policy' module loaded but the problem as I understand it is that PulseAudio doesn't define audio source when headset is in A2DP mode.
The usecase is:
- Listen to music
- Attempt to make a Google Hangouts call -- at this point I cannot configure Hangouts to uses headset mic because it is not present in list of audio sources. I have to manually switch to HSP profile in PA before I can make a call.
Other OSes seem to be handling this config change automatically.
I have Ubuntu 18.04 with PA 1:11.1.
Please let me know if any more information is required. Thanks!
