Bluetooth audio and other functionality lost after update

Hello,
I upgraded yesterday looks like Gnome 3.4 has caused some problems. 
I lost the auto move windows extension and bluetooth headset. 

Details:

Advanced settings (tweak) reports that Auto move windows is not compatible with shell version.

When I connect my bluetooth headset sound settings has an empty device list and volume control icon disappears.  When I disconnect the internal device is listed.  Google chat settings (online) no longer displays my bt headset as a selection choice. 

Edit:
Standard mic/headset also does not work correctly using both front and back connectors. 
No microphone input on any of the available choices[1] in gnome mixer or pavucontrol.

[1] - Mic1, Mic2, analog input, analog line in, analog video

Any advice?

Thank you.

Regards,
Brian

Re: Bluetooth audio and other functionality lost after update

I downgraded pulse to the previous version and the bluetooth/audio issue was corrected.

cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg && sudo pacman -U libpulse-1.1-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz pulseaudio-1.1-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz

Filed bug report in libpulse https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/29790

Brian
