Bluetooth device connected but can't be recognized

Post by SOC »

Hi, All,

I have my Bluetooth speaker connected as a A2DP sink by adding enable=socket in the file /etc/bluetooth/audio.conf (I've tried to connect the speaker directly without adding the line but always got "stream setup failed"; I can never connect to the bluetooth speaker without the line "enable=socket" )

However, the device cannot be automatically recognized by pulseaudio. It is shown in the pulseaudio hardware after connected. I have to type "pactl load-module module-alsa-sink device=bluetooth" to force my pulseaudio recognized it every time I boot.

Is some setting lacked?

PS. I have installed the following packages:
pulseaudio pulseaudio-module-bluetooth pavucontrol blueman bluez bluez-alsa bluez-firmware

and the following module can be listed in my pulseaudio.
module-bluetooth-device
module-bluetooth-discover
module-bluetooth-policy
module-bluetooth-proximity

@DoctorTyrell, Thank you! This fixed my Phillips bluetooth stereo headphones/headset not being recognized as a stereo output audio device. :D
