Please get proper traces of the pulseaudio process.

I no longer have the version installed that caused the error. Therefore I cannot reproduce it. The issue seems to be rather common based on a Google Search based on keywords from segfault.

For what it's worth, I can confirm the issue on a fresh install of arch linux: Connecting a bluetooth headset leads to the pulseaudio segfault error on my system also.

Downgrading to 1.1-2 solves the problem. Version 1.1-3 did not work. Random observation: Downgrading to 1.1-2 required installing some dependencies while downgrading to 1.1-3 did not (other than libpulse).
