Bluetooth headphones: sound only when it autoconnects

Hi all,
hoping you can help me with this issue:

I have a pair of bluetooth headphones, that tend to connect with whichever host was last (eg. my cellphone or my PC). They pair and connect with my PC well, however - when I connect manually via `bluetoothctl connect` - there's no sound. I can see PA sink in `pavucontrol`, and the  vumeter is jumping up & down.
If I shut the headphones off, and then turn them back on (they're set to be trusted) - they autoconnect, and then everything works fine.

This issue doesn't happen with my cellphone.

Solution would be great, but lacking that - pointers on how to analyze this would be great. It might just be me, but I couldn't find any good documentation on debugging bluetooth issues, and I'm not quite sure how to use all the tools from the `bluez-utils`.

Cheers.
