Fix A2DP with Gnome/GDM
Raw
a2dp.md

Issue

For some reason because GDM creates a pulseaudio session it ends up stealing the A2DP sink profile from the userland process.

Fix

Stop GDM pulse starting bluetooth discovery

  • Edit /etc/pulse/default.pa
# Comment out
load-module module-bluetooth-discover

Make userland pulse start discovery

  • Edit /usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11
# Add the following before the closing fi
/usr/bin/pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover
