Hello,
I'm trying to get my phone (nexus 4) to connect to my computer. I have bluez and bluez-utils installed. I've been able to successfully pair the device with my phone, but I can't connect to it.
Here's some output from bluetoothctl:
$ bluetoothctl

[bluetooth]# scan on

[bluetooth]# I'm trying to set up my phone to send keyboard input to act as a kind of remote control for pianobar. Does anyone have an idea why this might not connect?

EDIT: I've looked into the problem a little bit more and it seems like it has something to do with audio. I've set the default agent to KeyboardOnly, but the error still persists. Despite this, I've tried installing pulseaudio-git, which hasn't messed anything in my system up just yet, but has done nothing to fix the problem. I also tried reverting to bluez4. bluetoothctl refused to acknowledge hci0 (my device) and wouldn't work, the bluez commands worked somewhat, bluez-simple agent works, but you need to specify hci0 before the address, this works. Any other bluez command will fail. I've reinstalled bluez since (bluez5).
