Unable to get CSR BT USB dongle to pair with headset

I've spent two days trying to get this USB Bluetooth dongle to pair with my JBL BT headset without success.
I've tried every option on the Bluetooth and BT headset wiki pages with no change.
I've tried setting a GATT profile to headset and audio sink, and also tried Blueman which also fails to pair/connect irrespective of previously setup trust for the MAC.

I believe the issue is that there is no Pulseaudio sink for Bluetooth in spite of the module-bluetooth-discover being loaded.
pavcontrol does not show BT audio.

Re: Unable to get CSR BT USB dongle to pair with headset

Is there *any* possibility that something else in the room is paired with and is connected to the headset?  A phone, a game console?  It might just be that the desired profile is busy.

You do have pulsaudio-bluetooth installed

No, and I double checked again just to be sure. I setup the headset with my Android phone first and then removed it so I have to re-pair it on the phone again if I wish to use there.
I have to hold down the power button on the headset to get it into pairing mode and that is when the BT dongle on Arch sees it.

Correct, but shouldn't pactl list bluetooth as an output option?

Nobody else feels the lack of Bluetooth in the output of 'pacmd list-cards' is an issue?

Re: Unable to get CSR BT USB dongle to pair with headset

I bought a new Kinivo BTD400 USB dongle which pairs immediately with my JBL headset, I had to change the HSP/HFP profile to Pulseaudio's A2DP sink and did have to install its firmware via an aur package. I'm just going to return the older CSR dongle which I couldn't get to work on my Odroid C2 either. I won't waste any more time on it.
