Re: Bluetooth is dead

I'm facing the same problem here. Did you send a bug report for it?

Re: Bluetooth is dead

Sadly, I don't know what I did exactly, but my headset is now working (after having the above problem for quite some time)...  A few things I did:

1. I deleted ~/.config/pulse.

2. I removed a call to

start-pulseaudio-x11

from my .xinitrc.  I did this mainly because I had a feeling that perhaps multiple instances of pulseaudio were running (and interfering with each other?).

pgrep pulseaudio

always returned 4 to 5 PIDs, now there is only one PID returned again.

3. I added

load-module module-switch-on-connect

to /etc/pulse/default.pa (yet, I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with this problem).

4. I unpaired and repaired my headset (this is actually the only bluetooth-specific thing I did, everything else was rather pulseaudio-specific -- which might lead to the conclusion that pulseaudio is the real problem?).

5. I restarted pulseaudio with

pulseaudio -k; pulseaudio --start

quite a few times (yet it did not always work).

I should probably also state, that I don't know a lot about pulseaudio (which might be obvious from some stupid things I did unknowingly ;-) ).

Re: Bluetooth is dead

I have exactly the same issue, bluetooth has been broken since a while.

EDIT: According to people #bluez-users IRC these errors are not related to audio, and I was able to send a bluetooth file to my phone while I have these errors, so I guess everything is fine for me now.

Re: Bluetooth is dead

I have an MSI H97I board that has onboard bluetooth with the same errors upon starting the bluetooth service... but  /usr/lib/bluetooth/bluetoothd is running...

I can also use bluetoothctl to pair devices (a keyboard in this case) but it is non-functional.  Thoughts?

1. I deleted ~/.config/pulse.

This solved the same series of errors for me. Yay! (not sure why, though)

A little more detail: I have been using the same Bluetooth headset with bluez and pulse for many months. I recently connected a bluetooth speaker (actually an Amazon Echo), and my headset refused to connect with the errors mentioned here. Then I removed the Echo, which solved nothing, and then the Echo refused to connect with the same errors. Deleting the pulse config solved the issue.

I have not yet tried to connect the Echo again to see if I can establish a causal relationship.

Re: Bluetooth is dead

Same problem here with a mouse. Googling was also unsucessful because the first search result is the source of patch introducing the error message and the second result is this thread...

I don't know why because my hardware is still the same and I found no one facing this specific issue. However, bluetooth seems to be unstable as I read it here. So I tried the following solutions:

# sudo systemctl stop bluetooth.service
# rm -rf ~/.config/pulse
# sudo hciconfig -a hci0 reset
# sudo systemctl start bluetooth.service

EDIT: It stills do not work:

Re: Bluetooth is dead

I've got those same errors many have reported, and gnome-bluetooth shows no devices. However, blueman works, and shows devices. So I guess that's good enough for now.

Re: Bluetooth is dead

I changed the dongle and it seems that it works. I hope that this dongle will last, as it's USB 3.0 compatible.

But I'm afraid it won't last too. Average they die after 3 weeks.
And now I discovered that isn't a USB3.0 dongle
