BT Headset via BT dongle

Hi, I have a little problems with getting sound on my btheadset by ALSA.

I configured and paired arch with bt headset and I even can send commands to computer as PLAY/NEXT (commands are retrieved but does nothing) but I cant play sound.

aplay -D gives:

aplay -D btheadset ~/sth.mp3 
bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Połączenie odrzucone (111)
aplay: main:682: audio open error: Połączenie odrzucone

pcm.!btheadset {
   type plug
   slave {
       pcm {
           type bluetooth
           device 00:13:17:72:38:91
           profile "auto"
       }
   }
   hint {
       show on
       description "BT Headset"
   }
}
ctl.!btheadset {
  type bluetooth
}

I used every frontend, searched google a lot and I havent idea what is wrong.

Worked when I installed pulseaudio-git and rebooted. GZ for AUR users

Why do you need pulseaudio-git rather than just pulseaudio from the repos?

I had pulseaudio but it didnt work. Pulseaudio-git works great.
