Hi
I am on arch linux (obviously), awesome-wm, bluez, bluetoothctl, pulseaudio. All packages up to date.
I cannot get A2DP Profiles working. (The sinks are "unavailable")
--> Googling shows, that there is a lot of users with a similar/same problem.
So, I found a lot of scripts with workarounds, but non of them works. Also, I tried bluez-git and other cutting edge packages.
Nothing helps. Sink is never available. Tried with JBL Speaker and Sennheiser Headphone. Same Problem.
Is this working for you guys? Am I the only one with this problem?
Need help!!!
Cheers
Lukas
PS: No, not using GDM!

Do you have pulseaudio-bluetooth installed? And did you follow these instructions as well? Also this?
Edit: If struggling with Sink try the following:
sudo nano /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
Add a line in [general] on that file as follows:
Enable=Source,Sink,Media,Socket
See if this enables sink.

I found a policy.conf file, starting bluetoothd with "--plugin=policy" parameter.
Removed it, solved the problem...
Bugged me for months.

Couldn't find this profile.conf but what worked for me to have A2DP on my Bose 700 was this post: https://pandasauce.org/post/bluetooth-on-linux/ from the amazing Panda Sauce.

I don't think this is related to the problem I have had. Also, such old threads should not be digged out, especially if they are solved already.

Indeed, please don't necro bump
