Description:
Since pulseaudio5 my Bluetooth Headset is no longer shown as an audio output device (I'm using the gnome settings menu here). When I downgrade pulseaudio and libpulse to version 4. Every thing works again.

I had a similiar problem some time ago see:  FS#37236 

Additional info:
local/libpulse 5.0-1
local/pulseaudio 5.0-1

Steps to reproduce:
Just install pulseaudio 5 and the headset is no longer shown as an audio output device.
This task depends upon

Sounds like a user setup issue and not to be a bug.

I tried that. I can connect my headphone but no pulseaudio device is shown.

journalctl shows:

Hi, I found the real problem.

Pulseaudio 5 starts with gdm. So when I login two pulseaudio daemons are running. It seems that bluez5 connects to the wrong pulseaudio (the one from gdm) and not the pulseaudio daemon of my user. When I kill the pulseaudio server that is owned by the gem user and reconnect the headset, all works.
With pulseaudio 4 there was no such problem. Should gdm really start a pulseaudio daemon?

I have the same problem (tested with bluez (5.19) and bluez-git from AUR.
But even I kill the initial pulseaudio process and see with pulseaudio -vvvvv that headset connected and sink created - there is no actuak sink created and available (with pacm list-sinks I see only one sink - internal soundcard - and no sink for the headset.

Headset setup basically works for me with a Philips SHB9100 and A2DP under pulseaudio-alsa with some trouble on device auto-connect.

If something is completely broken for you this should be either a user setup issue or an upstream bug - in that case file an
upstream issue.

At least this is not a packaging issue - going to close this one soon.
