Bug 92102

Apparently the a2dp profile doesn't initially get connected. It's not PulseAudio's job to connect the profiles, but something is connecting the hsp profile, so I wonder why a2dp doesn't get connected at the same time... The same or similar problem was reported recently in IRC, but we didn't find the culprit at that time. Even though this doesn't appear to be a PulseAudio bug, I'd be very interested to know what the solution is, if you figure out one.

I'll add Luiz von Dentz to CC... Luiz, do you have any idea where to start debugging, if only the hsp profile gets connected when turning on a headset, but a2dp starts only working when an explicit "connect" command is given in bluetoothctl?

I had the same problem and can verify the same workaround with the following:

pulseaudio-git v7.0.34.g9d2b763-1

bluez 5.34-1

When the device connects automatically (by powering on after being paired) A2DP is "unavailable".

To enable--and subsequently activate--the profile the device must be connected by explicitly giving the "connect 00:1F:82:28:93:51" command to bluetoothctl.

I reproduced the same bug with Sony MDR-1RBT. Why does it have the problem with Sony bluetooth products?

Can confirm the bug in Kubuntu 16.04 with JBL bluetooth speaker.

It seems a similar problem was fixed upstream:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/commit/src/service.c?id=2e2edc36a91d6a8f2c65d793273df28a166d6bed

I just tested with this newer bluez, and the bug is still there.

This is a headset bug actually, the policy of reconnecting profiles is from the initiator as it may or may not have disabled profiles, like cars normally do have options to have phone calls only or media only.

It is actually pretty strange coming from Sony, this used to work quite well with their devices in the past, maybe they have decided to move to another stack an now there is this sort of problem, please add the HCI trace maybe there is something preventing the L2CAP connection to A2DP.

Unfortunately, the sony headset was taken by someone else. I don't have it anymore.

oh yes, you're right, there's an action to be performed on the device (press on the play/pause jog switch), that makes the a2dp_sink profile available and active in pulseaudio.

I have a Sony MDR-ZX220BT bluetooth headset that encounters this problem.
I'm using Ubuntu 16.10, bluez "5.41-0ubuntu3", and pulseaudio "1:9.0-2ubuntu2.1".


From
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1438510
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1577197
it looks like the sequence that works is:

1. Select the "off" profile in pulseaudio.
2.1 Disconnect the bluetooth earphones.
2.2 Reconnect the bluetooth earphones.
3. Select the "a2dp_sink" profile in pulseaudio.

Or for commands:
1. pactl set-card-profile bluez_card.00_18_09_62_4B_98 off
2. bluetoothctl
2.1    disconnect 00:18:09:62:4B:98
2.2    connect 00:18:09:62:4B:98
3. pactl set-card-profile bluez_card.00_18_09_62_4B_98 a2dp_sink

Bluetooth users are resorting to a scripted version of the above as a workaround:
https://gist.github.com/pylover/d68be364adac5f946887b85e6ed6e7ae#file-a2dp-py


What I'm seeing in /var/log/syslog if I select "a2dp_sink" as the profile, then disconnect, and reconnect:

The message from bluetoothd "fd(24) ready" showing up then makes me wonder if this is a race between pulseaudio and the bluetooth connection?

If I then run:

I get nothing new in /var/log/syslog .

If I run:

Attached a btmon log of attempt to connect and automatically use a2dp_sink profile.

Well the logs looks completely different from the original problem, perhaps the logs of bluetoothd can show if there is perhaps another client acquiring the transport which would explain the error:

Nov 25 00:47:50 fireflower pulseaudio[2178]: [pulseaudio] bluez5-util.c: Transport TryAcquire() failed for transport
/org/bluez/hci0/dev_00_18_09_62_4B_98/fd17 (Operation Not Authorized)

That another client could be gdm's pulseaudio instance. See comment 56 in bug 73325 for how to disable gdm's use of bluetooth: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73325#c56

I faced a similar issue with a2dp_sink profile where it is "not available" and what I did prior to connecting the Bluetooth headset in bluetoothctl was to first run pulseaudio --check -v to check if the pulseaudio daemon is running. If it is not running, issue "pulseaudio -D" and then check if it is running. Once the pulseaudio daemon is running, then only perform pairing and connecting in bluetoothctl.

Hi,

The same bug for me. Ubuntu 16.04. Packets:

  * libbluetooth3:amd64                5.37-0ubuntu5
  * pulseaudio-module-bluetooth        1:8.0-0ubuntu3.1
  * bluez                              5.37-0ubuntu5
  * pulseaudio                         1:8.0-0ubuntu3.1

Speakers JBL Charge 2 can't return after disconnecting. The python script a2dp.py published above restores connection.


Is there any chance to solve this in 2017? How can I help with this? (I'm a programmer). Is is a bug of pulseaudio or blueZ?

If you're a programmer, you can dive into pulseaudio and bluez code and figure out why it's not working.

Have you disabled bluetooth for gdm, as hinted to in comment #13? Ruling out the gdm problem would be the first step.

If the a2dp profile in "pactl list cards" shows up as "available: no", then it's likely a bluez bug. An "unavailable" bluetooth profile in pulseaudio means that bluez tells pulseaudio that the profile isn't connected.

Raising the priority due to downstream activity (affects a number of popular devices, directly impacts usability, leaves mainstream desktop Linux distros at a feature loss compared to non-free OSes, etc.). Also personally confirming that it affects the Bose Color SoundLink, and the workaround script is no help with it.

This bug should not have gone unresolved for two years.

A more or less vanilla Ubuntu 16.04 installation, this bug is triggered. Python script provided (a2dp.py) works like a charm and returns sound to device.

Where can I download a2dp.py? I want to make MDR-1RBT work on my linux.

https://gist.github.com/pylover/d68be364adac5f946887b85e6ed6e7ae#file-a2dp-py

Unfortunately, with MDR-1RBT, a2dp_sink is not available. Thus, a2dp.py cannot work in my case.

The only real errors I see in journalctl are

E: [pulseaudio] backend-native.c: connect(): Function not implemented
W: [pulseaudio] module-bluez5-device.c: Refused to switch profile to a2dp_sink: Not connected

Wait. The proposed workaround worked for MDR-1RBT.
I followed the steps below.

1. Turn on MDR-1RBT
2. Let it be paired and connected to automatically
3. Execute `connect 00:18:09:1F:C3:29` in bluetoothctl
4. Execute `pactl set-card-profile bluez_card.00_18_09_1F_C3_29 a2dp_sink` on a shell.
5. Select MDR-1RBT's A2DP in sound settings

If there was a workaround, people must have found the exact cause of the problem.
What is the problem? What is the cause? What is the solution?

If you could please add some logs when connecting, syslog of bluetoothd and pulseaudio, then we can figure out if it needs some special handling.

According to my test, A2DP works for MDR-1RBT after reconnection.
But, I can't set the active profile to headset_head_unit for MDR-1RBT.

Perhaps this is GDM instance taking over? Btw, have we make sure GDM instance disables its endpoints when it is no longer active?

When I turn on MDR-1RBT, the connection is severed by an unknown force several times before the connection succeeds.

> Perhaps this is GDM instance taking over? Btw, have we make sure GDM instance disables its endpoints when it is no longer active?

No, GDM is not running pulseaudio. I explicitly disabled pulseaudio in GDM.

I played music after A2DP became available to make sure A2DP actually worked.

I'm on Fedora 26, using PulseAudio 10.0 and I'm having the same issue with my Sony MDR100ABN headset. I've tried all sorts of things, and the only thing that consistently works is to:

1. Let it connect automatically when I turn on my headset
2. Disconnect through bluetoothctl
3. Reconnect through bluetoothctl
4. Use pacmd set-card-profile to set a2dp_sink

I've tried disabling the GDM pulseaudio, changing 'load-module module-bluetooth-discover headset=<mode>' in default.pa, adding 'load-module module-switch-on-connect' to default.pa, adding 'Disable=Headset' to '[General]' in bluetooth/main.conf, and pretty much any combination of those changes.

For me this is also the only thing that works, apart from the fact that I can enable A2DP within blueman after the explicit connection.

Archlinux, no GDM running.

My headset is Sony DR-BT50.
4.13.12-1-ARCH.

This is not gdm problem. I use lightdm + xfce. And have this bug. Nevertheless I was try to disable lightdm, reboot, startx - the bug still here.

@Sergey: thanks for your udev script.

Would you add a comment to your script that bluez-tools package is a dependency (for bt-device)? (Standard dependency for bluetooth sound seems to be only bluez-utils.)

Dependencies list added.

Isn't this a duplicate of bug 73325?

Dominik, no. For me all protocols works fine. But only if I connect to headset manual from bluetoothctl. We need exactly AUTOMATIC connection, when headset trying to connect to PC.

Just want to confirm this bug with SONY MDR-XB650BT on Kernel 4.14.52-1-MANJARO.

The script from Comment 38 helped me.

Can also confirm the issue with Sony WH-H900N headphones, Arch with kernel 4.17.4, BlueZ 5.50, PulseAudio 12.0.
