[solved] Pulse: org.bluez was not provided by any .service files

I am not using Bluetooth and thus the Bluez package is not installed on my system. However, this raises constantly the following error:

Nov 06 08:01:56 thinkpad pulseaudio[882]: [pulseaudio] bluez5-util.c: GetManagedObjects() failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.bluez was not provided by any .service files

In order to get rid of this unrelevant error message, I tried to mask the org.bluez.service as follows:

ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/system/org.bluez.service

This used to work for other `was not provided by any .service files` errors but not in this case.

Is there probably another way to disable Bluetooth support in Pulseaudio completely?

Try to comment out the bluetooth modules in /etc/pulse/default.pa

### Automatically load driver modules for Bluetooth hardware
#.ifexists module-bluetooth-policy.so
#load-module module-bluetooth-policy
#.endif

#.ifexists module-bluetooth-discover.so
#load-module module-bluetooth-discover
#.endif
